I'll try that tonight, when I go back to my own computer.

C:\gf>program
Exiting due to signal SIGSEGV
Page fault at eip=00002ea4, error=0004
eax=0000000c ebx=00000001 ecx=fffffffc edx=e8136aff esi=00000008
edi=0000b6c0
ebp=0004b67c esp=0004b674 cs=00a7 ds=00af es=00af fs=0087 gs=00cf ss=00af
Call frame traceback EIPs:
0x00002ea4
0x000055d6
0x00002954
0x00001a50
There is no way of symifying this, partly because this system doesn't have
symify (although I could get it) and partly because DJ's compiler doesn't
include symbol information. I'll try this program on my system and vice
versa later on.
