Compile everything with

make OPT="-O- -g"

then open two terminal/console windows on the machine, in one of the  
type "tty" and note the output, and in the other one start "gdb fp",  
then

   tty tty_of_other_console
   run

and then when it crashes type
   backtrace

post the output of the latter command here.
