1 Document Really Ugly Bugs (coredumps, assert fails, etc)
6 The GNU extension memmem() is known to be buggy on linux libc 5.0.9
7 and before. Glibc upto 2.0.5 also has problems with memmem (), but
8 these should not affect LilyPond.
13 LilyPond occasionally crashes while parsing the initialisation files.
14 This is a very obscure bug, and usually entering the commandline
15 differently "fixes" it.

35 I get bitten by this every once in a while, and I am very interested
36 in hints what might be wrong. This problem has only been identified
37 with libc-5.3 and libc-5.4 platforms, so you might try upgrading to
43 A problem resembling the previous: usage of libg++.2.8.x with the
44 wrong version of libc results in a coredump from the scanner while
45 reading the init files. Stacktrace:
