Alright I made a stupid mistake. When I'm running another PD at the same 
time (in this case test9) with -nosound then test29 load perfectly. If I 
quit test4 then test29 does not run again. 

So here is the gdb "where" after test29 crashes:

[Switching to Thread 1024 (LWP 7689)]
0x401282e4 in read () from /lib/libc.so.6
(gdb) where
#0  0x401282e4 in read () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1  0x4005c65c in __DTOR_END__ () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
#2  0x080bb8d6 in sys_poll_midi () at s_linux.c:490
#3  0x0809357b in sys_pollmidiqueue () at s_unix.c:441
#4  0x0808fcd1 in m_scheduler (nodacs=0) at m_sched.c:440
#5  0x080902e9 in sys_main (argc=1, argv=0xbffff764) at s_main.c:258
#6  0x08094496 in main (argc=1, argv=0xbffff764) at s_entry.c:9
#7  0x4007a9ed in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6


hope this new info helps ( I can't explain how having another PD open at 
the same time helps)

Thanks
Ben
