Description:
The dvisvgm coming with texlive-core (testing) segfaults on any dvi file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Complite the attached file with latex
2. Run dvisvgm on test4dvisvgm.dvi


P.S. I didn't install the whole texlive (testing) packages but try only dvisvgm from texlive-core.

Besides that I compiled dvisvgm from HG repo and it segfaults too if gcc-4.5.0 was used. I already faced with the fact that gcc 4.5.0 is (too) "buggy" so I installed gcc 4.4.4 in parallel and dvisvgm compiled with gcc-4.4.4 don't segfault.

Confirmed (on x86_64). I'll enquire upstream (TeX Live and dvisvgm) about this.

Moving around the declaration of GraphicPath::WriteActions in GraphicPath members seems to workaround the problem. I have no idea why. Only tested with raw dvisvgm 1.0.2 from souceforge, not the TeXLive version.

This was fixed by a gcc update, texlive-bin 2010.1 no longer shows the issue.
