Hi all,
concerning TeX/eTeX of teTeX 0.9-981012 Olaf Weber
<olaf@infovore.xs4all.nl> found the reason for this.
In texmf.cnf, there is:
max_strings.context = 55000
max_strings = 15000 % max number of strings
using 'tex --ini --fmt=context cont-de' the first line is read, but when
calling
tex \& context the second line is read, and since cont-de needs 18053
strings, it segment faults.
If context is linked to tex (ln -s tex context) and tex is called
'context' then it doesn't happen.
(Since in teTeX cont-* is soft linked to pdftex, which presently doesn't
work, I used (e)TeX and failed.)
Olaf Weber will provide three patches to solve this bug/problem. See
teTeX-pretest mailing list.
Tobias
