Tor Egge reported similar problem to me yesterday. I haven't had a chance to test his patch, but this supposedly fixes it.

He just sent me the patch via private mail a few minutes ago. With his patch applied, the stack (after the frame is set up by the thread function) is now 16-byte aligned and everything works just fine ... no bus error anymore.
