The only thing printed on the terminal before it dies is "Segmentation 
fault".  I can't be sure if this is caused by the extreme recursion 
(running out of stack space?) or by the corruption at the base of the stack.

I'm trying to get another Linux system up and running for just financial 
stuff.  If I can get this system working and it's by no means certain 
due to hardware issues, then I can move my real gnucash data over to 
it.  Then, I'll be able to use this system for more investigation 
without fear of corruption of my actual financial data.  Additionally, a 
change in my work assignment means I may have some time to actually 
investigate this (although unpacking from my recent move may preclude 
even that).  A month from now, my work assignment will change again to 
leave me with no time. 

I can't promise to spend any time on this, but I can hope to.
