hi,
i compiled a usually working library (linux) on a different computer yesterday and got strange segmentation faults occuring 10 minutes after running it.
gdb revealed, that pd tries to gensym (dogensym() or dogen() as far as i recall). the calling statement was the setup method of an external i did not use in the patch (yet of the same lib).
i did not save the backtrace and i cannor reconstruct the behaviour on my development computer.
any thoughts are welcome martin

Sounds like some memory corruption somewhere in the code. Either in pd or in the library you are using. As a guess I would say its in the library, but bugs are hidden everywhere, and specially this kind of bug is hard to find.
