Thanks for the report.  Did you build with libsigsegv installed, and if
so, which version?  I know that older versions of libsigsegv are buggy on
MacOS, although I don't have access to a Mac machine myself.  On the other
hand, if this is without libsigsegv, then that represents a bug where
c-stack should be made more robust, if possible.
