Mark,
thanks for your message and the porting effort. I include an
off-the-list message from Sergey Kurov who also said he planned to port
Sablotron to FreeBSD. Maybe he's got a clue as to what's causing the
problem you describe?
Anyway, does sabcmd crash when you run it even on the simplest sources?
Or on non-existent files? Also, the distribution includes xmlparse.h,
which is a header file for expat; does this match your libexpat.a?
Finally, how about trying to link sabcmd statically with Sablotron and
expat, to see if the problem persists?
I'd certainly check xmlparse.h in case you are using it. Keep in touch,
Tom Kaiser,
