All tests passed on my development machine (a PowerBook running Mac OS
X). I noticed the problem on Linux after releasing beta 12. The
strange thing is that the segment violation disappears when the
program is run with "gdb", so I can't even figure out where it is
crashing. My guess at this point is that my latest modifications of
the C-interface must be causing a problem when a garbage collection
occurs during a Scheme to C call. I'm looking into it.
