Dear all,
I experienced a bug in a computation:

true
brk>
-------------------------------------------------------
So, "GRP" and "GrpStab" have different behavior but are tested to
be equal. What could be the cause of the problem?
I never encountered this since so far in my years of use of GAP, when
a program stops, the reason is clear.
The problem is reproducible but with many subprograms to put before
getting to the problem and so I can't put it here. If that is relevant
the problem show up on gap4r4p10 with gcc compilers on x86 32 bits
machine.
Any advice or help welcomed.
Thanks,
Mathieu
