One of our people is getting a crash in xetex, which I can't reproduce.
It's very odd, since afaik we're both using the same input files, the
same instance of xetex, the same TeXLive 2014 files, and so forth, and
running on the same machine. Clearly s.t. is different, but I'm not
sure what, and this email is a query about what I should be looking for.
The error msg is:
----------

./LinguistInABox/output/latex/linguistInABoxGrammar.xetex -no-pdf died
with signal 13, without coredump
------------
Signal 13 is "Write on a pipe with no reader, Broken pipe."
I believe the crash is happening at the point xelatex is trying to embed
an existing PDF. If I'm right (we're going to verify it tomorrow), the
command that crashes is
----------
\imgexists{list_intonation.pdf}{{\imgevalsize{list_intonation.pdf}{\includegraphics[width=\imgwidth,height=\imgheight,keepaspectratio=true]{list_intonation.pdf}}}}{}
---------
Googling this:
xetex OR xelatex "rangecheck in --run--"
brings up about six msgs from 2011, which seem to be the same thread,
and afaict are irrelevant.
We're running the version of xetex that came with TeXLive 2014
(3.14159265-2.6-0.99991) on Linux.
Any suggestions as to what I should be looking for?
