Description
This is a very weird problem.
Oh GHM, in my home directory, attempting any I/O on certain file names will always crash, for example:
gtss, in >udd>Ring0>JJohnson:
GTSS 4JS3 (4.0) *10 REM *SAVE CRR03 DATA SAVED-CRR03 *SAVE CR03 DATA SAVED-CR03 *SAVE CR02 Error: bad_area_format condition by gtss_mcfc_$open|1230 (>system_library_unbundled>bound_gcos_tss_)
CRR03 was fine, CR03 was fine, CR02 crashed.
new_proc, gtss again, trying to use these (existing) names as GTSS did create the CR02 file it crashed on:
*OLD CRR03 *OLD CR03 *OLD CR02 Error: bad_area_format condition by gtss_mcfc_$open|1230 (>system_library_unbundled>bound_gcos_tss_)
Now, using a different directory:
new_proc create_dir gtss cwd gtss gtss GTSS 4JS3 (4.0) *10 REM *SAVE CRR03 DATA SAVED-CRR03 *SAVE CR03 DATA SAVED-CR03 *SAVE CR02 DATA SAVED-CR02 *OLD CRR03 *OLD CR03 *OLD CR02 *LIST 10 REM *
As you can see above, the crash did not happen when using the new directory - it only happens in the home directory.
I have not investigated further.

I cannot reproduce this. This is what I get:
I don't get any bad_area_format condition.
