Well, seg faults are bad...

Have you got any idea what causes it?  Is there a core dump?   Did
it seg fault before displaying any messages?

One way to debug this kind of thing is to stick lots of

        printf ("got here #1\n");

all over the place, to find out where it crashed...

I'd appreciate it if you could find where it's dying...

Thanks!
