Stability problems were hopefuly solved, so release of Linux version 
should be today.

It was not caused by icon library, as I thought yesterday, but with
strange intolerance of SVGAlib for fork() call. Terminating child process
sometimes randomly switched to console where Arachne was launhed from,
which of course resulted in graphics mode confusion and almost immediate
crash of system. Replacing fork() by pthread_create() from phtreads
library solved this problem (I need child process or thread for
non-blocking DNS).
