Greetings!
This one I believe is machine specific -- can I log in and reproduce?
(is this axiom-developer.org?)
In general, the easiest way for me to fix these things is to work with
a build atop GCL configured with --enable-debug. If anyone has the
time to produce such a build somewhere and confirm that the error
persists, then point me to it, we can take care of this in short
order. I realize that everyeon else's time is also limited, so if
this is not possible please so state.
Take care,
