This is a problem with FreeBSD-CURRENT on an amd64 machine, but not on FreeBSD-STABLE on i386 machines. First, I am asking for "me-too" reports, so that I can get some idea for what OS versions this is a problem. Second, if some kind soul wants to investigate the problem and submit a fix, I would be very happy. (Don't bother to contact the maintainer of the port, because that is me!) Here is a copy of the error that octave gives when it exits: Assertion failed: ((run->regs_mask[elm] & (1U << bit)) == 0), function arena_run_reg_dalloc, file /usr/src/lib/libc/stdlib/malloc.c, line 2543. panic: Abort trap: 6 -- stopping myself... attempting to save variables to `octave-core'... error: octave_base_value::save_binary(): wrong type argument `swig_packed' save to `octave-core' complete Abort (core dumped)
