[parisc-linux] C++ crash on hppa

[Will Newton]

(This is a repost of a message to debian-hppa, sorry if I hit anyone with it 
twice.)

I have a package that works perfectly on i386 but crashes on hppa. The code
is not anything that would be directly affected by the underlying hardware -
it makes no assumptions based on endianess or word size - and the crash
occurs because of a free of a null pointer inside the STL. I have attached
the backtrace. I'm really quite stumped by this one, so any help would be
greatly appreciated.

(Maybe something to do with static init order in dynamic libs?)
