The seg fault was caused by a format that is used to read the point/polygon 
attributes table.  When reading a sufficiently wide table there is no white 
space between two adjacent values and the program reads an incorrect result.  
This was not changed in a CVS version more recent than pre5.

The long execution times and massive memory requirement are inherent in the 
way that m.in.e00 reads the point/polygon attribute table, but are a problem 
mostly in exports that contain large attribute tables.

I've fixed both of these problems to my satisfaction.  I have not changed the 
documentation or closely reviewed my code changes.  What is the deadline for 
committing the changes?
