Thomas,
There's a thread on sourceforge here

I've never encountered a seg-fault using a ppc. Further, I only
encounter a seg-fault when I install SuiteSparse *without*
libcsparse.a, build Octave-2.9.17, and try to install
Octave-Forge-20071014. When I include libcsparse.a in the SuiteSparse
install, or remove SuiteSparse entirely, I have no problem ... I've
duplicated that effort twice.
Sounds to me being an optimization problem or something like that when
building SuiteSparse?! I'm compiling SuiteSparse 3.0.0 since I compile
Octave 2.9.12 and use libcsparse.a before I compile Octave. I also
apply the patch SuiteSparse-3.0.0.diff before building SuiteSparse
without metis (don't know if you have a current SVN of Octave-forge
checked out, here is the link)
http://octave.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/octave/trunk/octave-forge/admin/MacOSX/solvedeps
Modify Line 77 (+F77 = f2c) of that *.diff file into your needs for
gfortran and then build another SuiteSparse,
bash~:$ export CC=gcc
bash~:$ export CFLAGS="-fno-common -no-cpp-precomp -fexceptions
-D_POSIX_C_SOURCE -D__NOEXTENSIONS__ -DNPARTITION"
bash~:$ make
try to use that created libcsparse.a instead... I don't know which
option actually fails for you but you can add one flag by another in
F77FLAGS of ./SuiteSparse/UFconfig/UFconfig.mk or in CFLAGS above (eg.
-O3 -mieee-fp ...) - doesn't Fink already have a SuiteSparse package
ready?
Thomas,
The sourceforge link you brought to my attention looks like it will be
useful in resolving the problem with Octave and Octave-Forge using Fink.
Unfortunately, I've not been able to get the diff's to apply using
'patch'. Can you tell me what specific syntax is needed? ... hmmm,
perhaps I should tell you what I did, and you can tell me what I did
wrong ;-)
After placing the SuiteSparse folder and SuiteSparse-3.0.0.diff in the
same location, I tried ...
patch <./SuiteSparse-3.0.0.diff
