Comment:

 I made no change in the code. However, after I did a make clean, a build
 and a reinstalled and it does not segfault anymore. So it does not look
 like an issue in grass code, sorry for the noise.

 I have no precise idea on what could have caused that. One hypothesis may
 be prelink with randomized addresses, but that seems unlikely as both the
 executable and the libraries are in places where prelink should not
 venture according to what I understand about prelink configuration.

 Another possibility could be that a partial build of the grass libraries
 is not enough to get things right, you have to relink all the executables
 that depend on the libraries and it is not done automatically? I just
 checked that executables are not relinked when a library dependency is
 rebuilt, but I am not very convinced that this explains anything. This
 goes against all I know about binary compatibility.
