Axel & others,
I took a look into this and it appears to be fixed in the 2.0.2
patches, 1347 & 1392. That is, I could reproduce the crash easily
under 2.0.1 but after loading the patches, it was gone.
Just as a reminder, the patches are available from:
ftp://sgigate.sgi.com/pub/Performer/src/pf2.0/patch1347/
ftp://sgigate.sgi.com/pub/Performer/src/pf2.0/patch1392/
ftp://sgigate.sgi.com/pub/Performer/src/pf2.0/patch1414/
