Swarm applications build but coredump

[Lorin Hochstein]

Hi,

I've been wrestling with Swarm on a Linux box running Redhat 5.2, which
has been upgraded to glibc 2.1. I can compile swarm applications (such
as heatbugs), but they core dump when I try to tell them. Could anybody
figoure out what the problem might be by looking at the following output
from gdb?
