When i go to syslog.CRASH:
Sat Jul 19 04:05:36 :: SYSERR: Couldn't open player file pfiles/t/testchar
I am using ascii player files.  testchar doesn't show up in
plr_index(which is normaly the cause for the crash) or in t/testchar.  I
remember hearing something about the creating of new players are buggy or
something like that.  Gdb gives me:

Core was generated by `bin/circle -q 5000'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
Reading symbols from /lib/libc.so.5.3.12...done.
Reading symbols from /lib/ld-linux.so.1...done.
#0  0x4004156d in __libc_free ()

And that left me nowhere.  Any help or suggestions would be great.
Thanks.
