As the subject says, I get this on an x86 Fedora Core 5 system:

No crash with patch-556.
(For both versions I increase BASE_PURESIZE by 5KB to avoid a puresize
overflow).

Any idea what is going on?

That's the same crash I got. I've still got mine in the debugger.

Fixed this in patch-559, sorry. Next time I'll try to test my merges
before committing. :-)

I guess this does not happen anymore, or does it?

(Sorry for replying so late.)
