One missing information...sorry for the hassle

I haven't tested the Gob games for a long time, so i can only say, that it works with the 0.11.0 Palindrom release.

It works in 0.11.0? That's strange, because there weren't any real changes in the Gob engine or in the SDL backend since then. :/ From the crashlog, it looks like it crashes in the libc during OSystem_SDL::addDirtyRgnAuto() (called by the very first call to Video::retrace()). The only libc-function there is a memcpy copying the checksums around and that should be correctly initialized by initSize()...

I don't suppose you can attach a real debugger and sniff around a bit? Or giving me a dumped core and the ScummVM binary for AmigaOS (with debug-symbols)? Maybe I can set my gdb on that...

Sorry for blaming ScummVM for yet another problem on my side.

I recently changed from static to shared objects in my SDK missing a few vital changes that had to be made by hand (it's fun being on a beta system) :-)

These changes prevent some objects in SDL being linked as they should (becasue some shared onjects weren't in place) leading to the aforementioned strange errors in the GOB and SAGA engine (ITE).

After sorting my SDK and (hopefully finally) resuming the status to "working" these errors went away with a new build.

Thanks for the help and sorry for the hassle :-/
