Sorry for being so drowsy that I didn't notice this was
in an old version (J504) - trying it in J601 shows that
the problem was cleared along with other similar/related
limitations.
Special apologies to Roger (and anyone else) who went to
the trouble to try and reproduce the failure....
Real sleep - that's the answer!

I suppose they should have been zzzzzs :)
Reproducing the experience I found that 1028 ds were
acceptable, but 1032 got the Segmentation fault....
I suppose it is a buffer overflow, but a limit error
would be more pleasant. I actually did loose some work
(the session before I zoned out....)
