exit() failed

["Prud'homme Christophe" <prudhomm@navier.asci.fr>]

hello,

I have written a big application under X11/Motif and ported it 
under linux/Slackware(in the past) and linux/debian(now).
when I want to quit the application I use an exit() call
of course, but it failed: it turns in a sort of infinite
loop

here is what says the debugger gdb when I hit Ctrl+C

Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
0x401278b4 in _free_internal ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0x401278b4 in _free_internal ()
#1  0x40188c64 in __shtab ()
(gdb) 

I use parts of the development tree so that I have elf.

any idea on what's going on ??

remark: it ran fine under Slackware/elf

thanks in advance
christophe
