Hi Sven,

Thanks for testing!

Perhaps you can try compiling CHICKEN with DEBUGBUILD=1 and then
re-compiling and running your program.  This will add lots of
inline checks, making the program run very slowly, but it will
hopefully raise an early error rather than just segfaulting.

This should make it easier to pinpoint where it's going wrong.

Cheers,
Peter
