Are you saving any changes to a stack called "home" using a script?  Can you
check the modification dates of the files inside the Revolution directory
and see if any of the components are modified?  That will give us a clue as
to which file has gone wrong, though I'm guessing it is going to be
license.rev.  Try backing that file up and replacing it when this happens,
that will also at least help us to narrow it down to that file.
