A slightly different version of this problem does appear in 23.1.96,
though. A segfault when running in a terminal. This one doesn't occur
right after the start, though. To trigger it, press C-x C-f and press
<tab> four times. Here's what happens then:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

(gdb)

this is with the same CC and CFLAGS as mentioned before (changing
either appears to make the bug go away).


Kind regards,
