Hi,

Can anyone help a newbie with the UNIX VM.

I have a Gentoo 64bit system.

I pulled down Squeak-3.8a-2.src.tar.gz, the 64bit sources.

I compiled it with "make WIDTH=32" (I want to run an ordinary 32bit image).

After installing, squeak does start OK.

However, if I try to do anything that does netish stuff - for example
"update code from server", or try to open SqueakMap Package Loader,
then my vm crashes with a Segmentation Fault, something like so:

Segmentation fault

This was the same with a 3.9 alpha image, and a seaside-specific image.

I really feel at a loss for how to find the problem.  gdb won't work
on this box due to the use of PaX.

Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
