LyX on my sparc running Solaris 8 crashes when I try to load an
existing document or create a new one. The format of the file I'm
trying to read makes no difference. I've checked both bugzilla.lyx.org
and the mailinglist archive without finding any reference to this.

System:
gruk:~$ uname -a
SunOS gruk 5.8 Generic_108528-06 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100
gruk:~$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/2.95.3/specs
gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)

I've also tried stepping through the program, which has given somewhat
more info:

My entire source tree, core file and executable is available via http
from <http://gruk.algonet.se/lyx-1.1.6fix4/>, if it could be of any
assistance. I've also reproduced the problem on a cow-orkers
workstation, with the same architecture, OS and gcc version, and on
this workstation with gcc v 3.0.2. I have not encountered this problem
on NetBSD, which is my other OS of choice.
