Hello. Thank you for your answer. Again, the test Fortran program I am using 
has the following two lines:

       print *, "plouf"
       end

That is all and that is enough to crash DDD. This Fortran program does not 
require much memory!

Please find enclosed the file ".ddd/log" created after the crash. I do not 
understand the error messages in that file.

Finally, I have tried running GDB directly on the same program. It works fine:

---------------------------------
$ gdb a.out
GNU gdb 6.3-8mdv2007.0 (Mandriva Linux release 2007.0)

This GDB was configured as "i586-mandriva-linux-gnu"...Using host libthread_db 
library "/lib/i686/libthread_db.so.1".

(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/local/guez/a.out
Reading symbols from shared object read from target memory...done.
Loaded system supplied DSO at 0xbfffe000
 plouf

Program exited normally.
(gdb) quit
---------------------------------

So the problem really lies with DDD.

Can you not reproduce the crash with my two-line program?
Sincerely,
Lionel GUEZ
