Werner, I'll admit to being slightly confused here!  When do you 
experience the crash?  Is it when 'grn' is being compiled during a 
standard `make' run?  Or is it when 'grn' is being used to produce 
documentation files?  If it's the former, I can confirm that gcc-4.1.1 
and glibc-2.5 are not affected by the same problem; `grn' is built and 
installed fine here.  If it's the latter, as I said before, I can't 
trigger the bug at the moment due to a lack of dependencies being installed.

Regards,

Matt.
