Thank you.

Whew!  I was starting to blame myself for that segfault.

Yes,  I've been using a six-year-old 32-bit Toshiba Satellite (core duo) to 
play around with stuff I considered dangerous, like FreeBSD and Ubuntu (my 
other laptop is a macbook  and there are firmware issues and reports of 
corrupted firmware with at least one distribution). 

I wouldn't want to use Monet for production on that old equipment  but it 
seemed adequate for purposes of self-education.

Since it looks like the problem is specific to 32-bit systems, that 
indicates that the source of the problem could be literally anywhere, does 
it not?... 

When I run ldd on the executables built under linux, the first thing  listed 
in the output is "linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xf774d000)", with no file on disk?  
I presume this is something built into the kernel...Again, if the problem is 
specific to 32-bit systems, then the source of the problem could be 
literally anywhere, right? 

I reinstalled debian (stable) on my macbook last night, 64-bit this time.  I 
like stable.
