I guess this was to be expected. The problem is (was?) also present on Linux if 
you link to a third-party osmesa. My patch 
https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/download.php?file_id=35085 only fixes 
compilation issues; segfault remains. However, why not building with 
"--without-OSMesa"?

My problem seems to come from veclibfort. What blas library do you use?
