[SDL] Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)

[Gregory Smith]

If something works in gdb, and not outside of gdb, I would suspect an 
uninitialized variable. I've found sometimes things get initialized to 
different values when running in gdb, and that makes them work.

If you really can't find it, and can't get it to happen in gdb, compile 
with the SDL parachute disabled and set ulimit -c unlimited, and you'll 
get a core file. Then you can open that in gdb and find out what's up.

Sorry for contributing to the increasing OT-ness of this thread.
