Comment (by glynn):

 Replying to [ticket:775 mlennert]:

 > In all three version (6.4, 6devel and 7), I get the following error
 running r.terraflow in the North Carolina demo data set:

 > file=/home/mlennert/STREAM/STREAM_lRe0NI:cannot read!: Bad address

 The error message corresponds to fread() failing with EFAULT (invalid
 buffer pointer) in either AMI_STREAM<T>::read_item() or
 AMI_STREAM<T>::read_array(). I would suspect the latter, as the former
 reads into the read_tmp member of the AMI_STREAM<T> object

 The assert() failure:
 >
 {{{
 r.terraflow: /home/mlennert/SRC/GRASS/grass6_devel/dist.i486-pc-linux-
 gnu/include/grass/iostream/ami_sort_impl.h:91: size_t
 makeRun_Block(AMI_STREAM<T>*, T*, unsigned int, Compare*) [with T =
 plateauType, Compare = ijCmpPlateauType]: Assertion `err ==
 AMI_ERROR_NO_ERROR || err == AMI_ERROR_END_OF_STREAM' failed.
 }}}

 also suggests the read_array() method, and indicates that a bogus pointer
 is passed as the "data" parameter to makeRun_Block().

 Beyond that, I can only suggest running it under gdb and printing a full
 backtrace ("bt full") when it aborts.
