Hi,

I traced it further more and it looks like a bug in Docviewer.c using 
an illegal reference to a local variable.

 for (long i = 0; i < count; ++i) {
        ViewerColorInfo& info = _color_info->item_ref(i);
        if (strcmp(info._name, name) == 0) {
            break;
        }
    }

later on it checks the value of i. I change the scope of i and doc just
fired right up. Will "fix" similar referencs in doc.

	Cheers,
	Amancio
