It seems that upstream would like to be portable - it's in the project name, and their list of unofficial packages includes Amiga and BeOS - it might well need little more work than reporting it upstream. And indeed they may have even already fixed it in the time since it was previously tested. Is there anyone with an alpha that can try regress tests with jca's diff and send a backtrace if it still segfaults?
