I just tried to reproduce the problem on a Linux platform, but I
can't. From what you describe it may well be a memory corruption
problem. This will be tricky to hunt down. What operating system are
you using?

I recently fixed a memory corruption bug in glimpse. I'm not sure if
it will help your problem, but are you interested in trying a snapshot of
the current CVS and see if the problem persists? I could make it
available to you.
