Summary: segfault with hyperref
Initial Comment:
See http://bugs.debian.org/336807 and
http://bugs.debian.org/336783:
From: Robert Hart <enxrah@nottingham.ac.uk>
Package: tetex-bin
Version: 3.0-10.1
Severity: normal
I have experience srgfaults with xdvi on a file containing
hyperrefs. The page that causes the crash contains a
(landscape)
table, which happens to contain links (but I don't
believe they are
part of the problem. The following page starts with a
hyperlink (due
to a \cite). I'm guessing that this link has been
broken across
several pages (due to the floatpage in between.
I reported this bug to xdvik-ja (as that is where I
discovered it) but
it applies to tetex-bin's version too. See bug 336783,
for debugging
info, which I hope is relevant to the tetex codebase too.

Thank you for the report and the sample file, I can
reproduce the problem by doing
latex thesis; bibtex thesis; latex thesis; latex thesis
after extracting the archive
testdoclite.tar.gz
which is attached to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=336783
and then invoking xdvi on thesis.dvi and typing 'g' to go to
the last page. It also happens when going to any page >= 40,
also with `next page'.
The stack trace is:

This looks like the bug in
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1188866&group_id=23164&atid=377580
but is easier reproducible. I'll investigate.
