I was not yet able to reproduce it but to be honest I didn't yet played
a longer time.

I doubt this as hex-a-hop doesn't use threads. Maybe a wrong memory
access is responsible? In 0.0.20070315-5 (unreleased, in SVN) I fixed
three errors reported by valgrind but even without these fixes I could
not reproduce it.

Could there be other reasons for such a bug?

I tested with -4, so maybe it is already fixed in this version?  I
mainly fixed i18n so I doubt it.

Maybe you could nevertheless try debian/ from SVN (upstream code didn't
changed)?

How often does it occur? What CPU are you using?
