Re: DDD 3.3.11 (i686-apple-darwin9.1.0) gets `Bus error' signal

Abandoned debugging and leaving it to the experts.
I am 90% sure that the problem lies with Apple.
I am impatiently awaiting upgrades to both Leopard and Xcode!
No reason why GetFileDatabase shouldn't be called with a filename for  
a non-existent file?
std::ifstream is(filename.chars()); is probably capable of handling  
this situation.
