    I've had this happen a number of times with older versions of nn.  The
    problem is that when nn crashes for any reason, you never find out about
    it.  The solution I found was to compile nn with the -g flag, and use dbx
    to determine where the crash occurred.  In my case, I found a bug which
    had already been fixed in the next version, which had been available for
    some time.  So my guess is that you either 1) don't have the most recent
    version or 2) have found a new bug, which I'm sure Kim would welcome
    hearing about (and I'm sure he'd welcome your fix as well!).  Go to it.
