Summary: Pd-0.42.4-Vanilla crashes when opening a patch

Initial Comment:
I'm running Pd 0.42.4 vanilla compiled for 64 bit Ubuntu Intrepid.  I'm not sure if this is a general bug or a 64 bit specific one.

Opening some of my song patches crashes Pd rather frequently.  I'm not sure what it is about these particular patches, but they seem to kill pd most often when I'm running jack as opposed to oss, etc but mabye that has nothing to do with it.

Anyway, I ran pd in gdb and caught two different segfaults on 2 crash instances:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
...
binbuf_text (x=0x2212c30, text=<value optimized out>, 
    size=<value optimized out>) at m_binbuf.c:73
73	        if (*textp == ';') SETSEMI(ap), textp++;


Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
