I spent the past couple hours updating the OpenSolaris spec files to get 
BrlTTY 3.10 and liblouis 1.6.0 to build/compile/install.  I used Orca 
from trunk and UEBC-g2 as the contraction table.  Things work fine and 
as expected.  No crashes.  :-(

There might be some sort of integration problem you're running into on 
the platform you're using.  You might also look at the character 
encoding flags needed to build liblouis.  From 
http://live.gnome.org/Orca/Braille, I see a recommendation to use this 
command for Linux systems (I use --disable-ucs4 on OpenSolaris):

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-ucs4
