Hi Stefan,

  can you try linking without -lNew. Does it still crash?
If so you'll have to compile in debug mode and do some debugging yourself.
The only linux we have access to and can test are: RH4.2, RH5.2, RH6.0, RH6.1
(of which RH4.2 is a libc5 system). On all these systems things work fine.

Cheers, Fons.
