 Well, the problem seemed to be the way gcc stores strings in
 non-writable memory, so I replaced that part with a proper record
 structure.  your patch is just another patch, so why is it any better
 than mine?
 
 Also, no segfault is acceptable before scores are written to disk.

 Sorry, I can't help, because I don't have a working freebsd
 installation ATM.
