It was very and that wasn't it.

The problem is related to threads. The code leading up to
the seg fault is:
               ld8   r14=[r14];;
               add  r14=r14,r13
               nop.i 0x0
[MMI]       ld8    r14=[r14];;
               ld8    r14=[r14]
               nop.i  0x0
It seg faults on the last ld8 shown because r14=0x0
But notice r13. It is apparently addressing an element of the
thread control block

Does this suggest an external cause related to configuration,
versions or ??
