DDD 3.3.9 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) gets `Segmentation fault' signal

[Roland Gigler]

I downloaded tar.gz from SF.

configure --prefix=/homes/roland/lx
make
make install

cd
lx/bin/ddd
   ddd showed the splash screen, then crashed, no main window.


Console-Output:
===============

address@hidden:~/lx/bin> ./ddd

BTW: the display is redirected to a SUN Solaris 8 box.
