OK, I grabbed the file, but I haven't set up catdoc on my system
yet. That's why I was hoping you'd test out my patched version of
ExternalParsers.cc for me. :) Your message doesn't make it clear
if htdig still crashes after the patch is applied. If it does, I'd
gladly look into it further. I don't spot anything in the code that
would blow up on 8-bit characters, but that doesn't mean testing won't
reveal something.
Just so I know I'm testing the same thing you are, which version of
catdoc & htparsedoc are you running, and where can I get it. All I have
is the stuff in contrib/htparsedoc, from Sept. 7.
Also, if you can get a backtrace from a core dump when htdig crashes,
I'd like to see where it's happening. I can try to reproduce the problem
here, but I'd like to know if what I try to find and fix is the same
problem you're running into - these things are sometimes system dependent.
