Subject: crash w/ Florida law
Package: xpdf-reader
Version: 3.00-13

Here is the Florida Administrative Code:

http://fac.dos.state.fl.us/faconline/chapter64.pdf

The index doesn't work too well. Try following the
instructions I was given for finding Chapter 64V-1,
the Vital Statistics code:

  In the menu on the left side, scroll all the
  way to the bottom to 64V-1. You will
  need Adobe Acrobat Reader 4.05+ to view these file.

The index doesn't work right. In fact, xpdf spits
out all sorts of errors. It seems that some sort of
interpreter stack fails to grow as large as needed.

On the debian-powerpc mailing list, Sean Neakums
and Ken Moffat report:

That's at least two bugs by my count (xpdf and X),
and fixing one might hide the other.
