Hi,

The problem is that I cannot get it for you because it's proprietary code, and 
the issue raised when loading the code from a Monticello repository.

I got some strange crashes in other contexts but without having time to dig 
into these :(. I will try to keep my eyes opened and find some reproducible 
case.

Cheers,
Doru
