Install fails (was Re: ANNOUNCE: Beagle 0.3.0 and Beagle-Xesam 0.1)



I have what I'm sure is a minority problem, but would welcome any
suggestions.

I run on a Fedore 6 box which is managed centrally, i.e. I do not have
root privileges.  I have been able in the past to install beagle (up
through 0.2.18) by a modest amount of hacking about and installing
other things as well, including my own mono-1.2.2.1, in my own local
tree.

But I'm losing with beagle-0.3.0 (and mono 1.2.5.2).  Mono-1.2.5.2
builds and installs OK, and beagle-0.3.0 builds OK, but any attempt to
run anything beyond the trivial fails.

So although

 >  MONO_GAC_PREFIX=..:/home/ht/lcontrib ./beagle-config

prints out the usage message,

 > MONO_GAC_PREFIX=..:/home/ht/lcontrib ./beagle-config BeagleServer

(where /home/ht/lcontrib is the root of my local installation area,
i.e. /home/ht/lcontrib/lib/mono/gac is where the mono installation
puts things)

produces a segfault with the following trace:

  at (wrapper managed-to-native) System.String.InternalAllocateStr
(int) <0x00004>
  at (wrapper managed-to-native) System.String.InternalAllocateStr
(int) <0xffffffff>
  at System.Text.StringBuilder.InternalEnsureCapacity (int) [0x000b1]
in
/amd/nfs/hippocampus/disk/ptn057/projects/lcontrib/src/mono-1.2.5.2/mcs/class/corlib/System.Text/StringBuilder.cs:681

I've used strace and as far as I can see the obvious files are coming
from my new installation, and only very vanilla stuff is coming from
the underlying /usr/lib or /lib. . .

Any clues as to where I should look ?

Thanks
