Hi,

the h2root executable found in the official binaries for Mac OS X 10.5 of root 5.22/00 and 5.23/02 seg-faults when called with an argument (be it just --help or a file to be converted):

$ bin/h2root --help

{not very useful debugger noise}

0x918ab189 in wait4 ()

Thread 1 (process 14047 thread 0x807):
#0 0x918ab189 in wait4 ()

#6 0x0379e264 in mzform_ ()
#7 0x037945ea in hlimit_ ()
#8 0x0000471b in main ()

Thanks to Pawel Majewski for pointing this out (using the root version from fink).
