I compiled the install program with full assertions and it crashs with a run-time stack dump. Looking the code it seems related to the memory management by SmartEiffel (it is not good because there is a garbage collector). So may be it is broken. I will check it with FreeBSD 6.2 and another C compiler and try to get more informations. Regards. stack dump : http://user.lamaiziere.net/patrick/smarteiffel-dump.txt
