[pbmserv-dev] gipf bug

[Paul van Wamelen <wamelen@math.lsu.edu>]

All,

I've looked into the gipf bug. Seems it compiles and can do a challenge
but as soon as you make a move it segfaults. The offending line seems to
be line 1106 in board_ii.cxx:
    if (xmlgame->getname() != "board")
const string & getname () seems to work fine but the comparison with
"board" causes the segfault. Clearly something to do with the string
header files but unfortunately this is where my expertise (or lack there
of) ends.

Best,
Paul
