No, I'm afraid its nothing so obvious. I can
rm *.o *.exe
build, run

and it runs fine.  However, if I alter one of the files and rebuild
exactly the same way, I get the segfault, so I make clean and build
from scratch each time.

I'll work on it.  I've been hesitating about posting this bug report
for a few weeks because I couldn't come up with a small, repeatable
example.

At this point, it always happens.

I'd love to be able to do that.  Unfortunately I'm working on
proprietary code, and I cannot.  However as a big advocate of free
software, I find it refreshing that most people make that assumption
:)

So anyway, I'll work on coming up with a smaller version of the bug
that I can send you.  In the meantime, if anyone has any other ideas
of what I could do to isolate the bug, I'd be glad to try them.

peace,
