I believe this system will run Swarm fine.

The bug mentioned in BLT doesn't show up in the BLT tests, only in the
way swarm uses the blt_graph widget (one point at a time). But if this
is the error causing the trouble, you should see a message about a
failed assertion.

For reports of this kind, it's very useful if you can send us a stack
trace of where the error occurred. Run the program under gdb, and when
it crashes type 'where' and send us the output.
