Summary: 'pdftex %' causes segmentation fault (1.50.0-alpha-20070709)

Initial Comment:
Run 'pdftex %' and then press return at the prompt.
This causes a segmentation fault on my machine.

I will recompile with debugging, and try to locate the
source of the fault.

I was thwarted for a while by the fact that build.sh strips
the executables! Anyway, here is the backtrace:
