yes, sorry...
here is the gdb report, but seems totally useless...

(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/carlo/swipl-devel/src/swipl --home=. -f none -g
make -t halt
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]

since I haven't found a way to restart (I didn't know I had to issue a
checkpoint, sorry again),
I've quitted, and the build - tricked by gdb exiting 0 - has completed
nicely...

Since that change in swipl.sh means a long repetition of (gdb) start ...
(gdb) q I'll try to focus only on the problematic step.

Thanks for your help
Carlo
