    The particulars -

    Stock Suse8.0 distribution

    Abiword tgz 1.0.1 compiled using 'diving make'

    gtk, no gnome

    The Results -

    It runs from the root account. Yay!

    It segfaults if run from a user account. :-(

    (Just after the splash screen)

    Not the Obvious?

    The first thing I thought of was a permissions problem,
    but I looked as best I could and didn't see anything
    wrong there. I haven't any experience with permissions
    causing segfaults, either, so I don't think that's it.

    I had somthing similar happen with the RPM from user-local-bin,
    too, which is why I tried compiling from source.

    I'm stumped.

    Anyone seen this behavior or have any ideas?
