I'm not sure if this relevant to your problem, but when I get
segmentation fault
in linux, its usually due to insufficient stack mem in the shell I'm
in.
Read up on: ulimit  for bash shell. I use bash, and the command is
 ulimit -s <some number of Megs>.  I get lazy and type

 ulimit -s unlimited

 For csh I seem to recall its: limit stacksize unlimited.

    in BASH:
      ulimit -s unlimited
      (type "ulimit -s" to see stack setting.  The "s" is for stack.)
      (type "ulimit -a" to see all settings.)

    in CSH try:
      limit stacksize unlimited
      limit datasize unlimited
      (type "limit" to see settings.)
