Whats wrong with the following test program? It crashes under DEC/OSF (root 2.012) 
after having read the first line of an arbitrary ascii file. Hitting the return key
again, or starting it a second time, it runs.

{
gROOT.Reset();
G__loadfile("iostream.h");
TString buffer;
  ifstream crif("text.car");
  while (!crif.eof()) {
  
    buffer.ReadLine(crif);
    printf(" %s\n",buffer.Data());
  }
}
