Guenther,

You (and we) need a little more information:

* If you can, ask your user what they did, as best they can remember, to
produce the database that causes the crashing. Even better, if you can
walk them through the steps and reproduce the problem.
* You need to ask them what version of Metakit they were using. What
version of Tcl were they using? I think you said the DB came from Windows,
what version (win2k, win98, winnt, etc.)?
* You should also tell us what version of Metakit *you* are using and on
what OS. Did you build Metakit yourself? If so, with what compiler and
options? What version of Tcl were you using?
* If you have a simple way of reproducing the failure, please post a small
Tcl script that will demonstrate how you produced the crash. Does this
happen only on this one DB or on all DBs?
* If you can run the program under a debugger (gdb on Linux, for example)
and produce a stack trace, that would help.

Once some more information is available, perhaps it'll be possible to help
you figure this out.

Thanks! --JYL
