Hi Chris,
I called http://pathology with NO on 486 without problems.
Now some comments to your trap in ImgIcon:

Nope. C is on the stack not on the heap => No initialisation before use.
That said I feel that ImgIcon is an example of optimistic programming:
In rare cases it could be possible that e.g.
obj := Gadgets.FindPublicObj("Icons.Picture");
or
NEW(iCon);
fail and then you will get a -14.
Cheers, Edgar
