That's right. I have also tried longer strings with no strange
characters such as "accounts payable" and had the same result.

I thought I had, but it must have been on my OSX machine. On the
machine in question (Fedora 5) I performed the steps from the
tutorial. Similar result; this time during search instead of insert:
irb(main):002:0> require 'rubygems'
=> true
irb(main):003:0> require 'ferret'
=> true
irb(main):004:0> include Ferret

irb(main):005:0> index = Index::Index.new
=> #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524>
irb(main):006:0> index << "this is a new document to be indexed"
=> #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524>
irb(main):007:0> index << ["and here", "is another", "new document",
"to index"]=> #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524>
irb(main):008:0> index << {:title => "Programming Ruby", :content =>
"blah blah blah"}

irb(main):009:0> index << {:title => "Programming Java", :content =>
"yada yada yada"}
=> #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524>
irb(main):010:0> index.search "document"
(irb):10: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-linux]

So my problem lies within ferret. Any ideas what I should try from here?
Thanks for your help
