Excellent report.  Thanks!

I can't actually reproduce your problem on my Debian woody box, but
you pointed me at the right bit of code, and I have to admit to having
made a careless error.  I have applied this patch (to HEAD and MLB) in
place of the one you sent -- let me know if you still have a SIGSEGV
with this version.

I would have applied this sooner, but subversions hasn't been
cooperating with me for the last day and a half...

Cheers,
        Gary.
