[postgis-users] Segfault in shp2pgsql? Or did I mess up compiling.

[strk at refractions.net]

Your patch committed. Thanks.
This was introduced fixing the "missed escape of first char" bug.

I'm afraid this is bad enough to make 1.0.1 closer, as the segfault
is pending on *every* import. Can you check current CVS (1.0 branch) ?
