If all you want to do is make the bug appear to go away it would be
better to comment out the offending line.

DO NOT just change FFFF to FF. The code uses FFFF and FF to refer to
_different_ files and I have no idea what sending this output to FF
(when it's not an uninitialized value) will do.

(No, I don't know why FFFF, FF and F !)
