------- Additional Comments From ruskie AT email.si 2004-03-03 17:34 -------
I found this while discusing with a friend of mine about segmentation
faults(he
studied why they occour and how).
What I have found here is a valid reason that a segmentation fault can occur
for
other then hardware related issues. Therefor it would be a good idea to have a
workaround for this in sorcery either by asking the user about it or
automatic...

"Problem: What is a segmentation fault?
Solution:
A segmentation fault is caused by memory misuse. Your program is
attempting
I/O on an area of memory it is not permitted to access.

This can have many causes; some of the more common ones are "wild
pointers"
and buffer overflow (for example, allocating n characters for a buffer, and
n+1
characters are written)."
