Yikes!  Well if it was something like heat you would be getting errors 
from all around, not just in the same place (I assume it is also in 
presets.c).  Is it not possible that the segfaults belong only to that 
piece of code and that compiler?  In this case it can just be a gcc bug.

I guess I would start #if 0 -ing out chunks of presets.c (if it is 
indeed dying in the same place) and see what I need to make a segfault, 
maybe this can give a clue.
