If you're segfaulting in malloc(), you probably wrote outside the
bounds of your allocation. You might want to try using Electric Fence
or one of the other malloc debugging packages. (Do they work on
Alpha? I've never tried them.) I'd be quite suprised if a compiler
bug resulted in a segfault in malloc().
