    I don't think that this can matter -- the error happens in this  
    function as defined in floatfns.c:

Yes, line 561 uses the value of d.  We need to see what d was just
before that line.

    If my understanding of (old) C still stands, d is a local variable  
    inside the function's body. At line #556 a 'print d' tells:

            $1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x901aea38 <d>

That is very strange.  It isn't just a bad value, it is the wrong
kind of output.  The value looks like the address of something.

You need a Mac wizard to help you figure out why those lines
do not execute properly.
