oh i forgot to mention: my 64bit machine is running debian x86_64; all my applications are compiled as 64-bit. so the bug should expose to me but i still don't even know what it is (apart from "a bug")

The rsqrt bug is not guaranteed to manifest itself because memory layout decisions made by the compiler may very well hide the bug, e.g. if the area clobbered by the buffer overflow is left unused.

so still not knowing what might happen: it seems to be a buffer overflow that crashes pd as soon as the [rsqrt~]-object is created ? (or the dsp is turned on ??)

i'm just interested.
