I ran into this "bus error or something nasty like that" error, using 
Saber-C++ cfront 2.1 and SunOS 4.0.3, in the alpha release.

For idraw, I split up ided.c by putting IdrawEditor::Tools() in a separate 
file, IdrawEditor::Commands() in a separate file, and thus cutting down the 
number of includes in ided.c. This worked, and hence I got a working idraw.

I did not try this with ibuild, since there were too many files which had
the insidious error.

I think this adds credence to what George said.
