I may have a clue, but I can't find any references to it in lwtools docs.

Does anyone have a clue what the assembly line:DefTime	dtb, or in another 
place DefName	dts is?

If at assembly time, the linker is replacing those with some sort of a 
macro, then its possible the crc would be wrong.  At this point I think its 
worth asking Mr. Astle, or maybe filing a bug?  I dunno.  I am inclined to 
say its a bug in lwtools that could hit any module that uses this pair of 
"macros, dtb, dts"  The only place we are going to find out what they are 
is probably by reading the lwtools sources, which we can of course.

The best test fix at the moment is probably to run vfy -f sysgo and see if 
it then runs ok.
