Would be nice to run it from gdb, in order to get the backtrace when it
crashes. This should help you understand where and why :).
Additionally, you can try valgrind, which reports typical programming
errors like calling free() twice on the same object.

Steve,
I just saw that utility the other day. It looks interesting. How do you
typically use it? or grindcall-grindval? Do you know of a good tutorial
you could point me/us to?
TIA,
