It seems that you're right about pdftops. However, it is also the case that the pdf viewers still exit, implying that they're not handling the failure of pdftops very well, or that they have their own crash issues as well. Trying to get a stack trace from kpdf gave me over 3000 frames, for instance :/ I can't reproduce this any more with libc6 2.5-4. I'm going to upload xpdf 3.02 soon anyway which also seemed to fix it with libc6 2.5-1.

I saw some mention in the glibc changeog that there were some problems with a printf implementation (print_fp?) in glibc. It may be that this whole thing was related to that issue. If so, sorry for the flap and thanks for your responsiveness. -- - | ,''`.Stephen Gran | | : :' :[EMAIL PROTECTED] | | `. `'Debian user, admin, and developer | |`- http://www.debian.org | - signature.asc Description: Digital signature
