0000049: hdgeant crashing
This was submitted by Will Levine to the HallD-offline list. Here is his original e-mail:

"I keep running into a crash when I try to run hdgeant over a large
number of events. Is there anything I should do try to isolate or
identify the problem? I'm just using b1pi events from genr8 with the
default control.in"
No tags attached.

This was confirmed by running a freshly compiled executable using the same svn revision originally reported. The same input file and control.in file were used. After ~36k events, the program crashed with a stack dump indicating gkbin to be the routine at the top of the stack.

Will reported that with a newer update of the source, the problem seems to have gone away. I confirmed this by repeating my earlier exercise that confirmed the crash, but using an executable updated to the current trunk of the source tree. It ran through all 100k events without crashing.
