and then i changed the code a bit to enable [gemhead]s to be created on 
the fly and immediately start rendering (without having to restart it 
manually by sending [0,1( to the [gemwin])

anyhow, this (and the prior changes to the GemCache) created a bunch of 
other mis-behaviour but i finally got an idea what made Gem crashing 
when objects where modified (e.g: sending floats to [rotate]) while 
rendering was turned off: all the objects hold local copies of the 
pointer to the GemCache. AND they modify the GemCache with setModified().

so i added a magic-number to the GemCache to ensure that the pointer is 
still valid. (and accordingly changed all the involved objects)

so i hope this issue is really fixed for now.
any tests ?
