Is this the right place to report segfaults?


spc$ R CMD BATCH driver.q rOut.txt
spc$ tail -16 rOut.txt /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/BATCH:
line 60:  5461 Segmentation fault      ${R_HOME}/bin/R -f ${in} ${opts}

I also got this error once:
Error: segfault from C stack overflow

Any thoughts would be appreciated.  I have no personal C code, and it looks
like the matrix I pass to solve is too ill conditioned?  Let me know what
other info I can use to help figure out the problem. I saw several of these
on the R-help but wasn't sure which was the best place to report.

Thx, Blair
