Bugs in McStas/McGUI

Hy again

just a note to tell you about strange behaviours of McStas 1.2

1- When on a SGI machine, I launch mcgui with the example tutorial
in14_tut (from web)

mica~farhi 32% mcgui in14_tut.instr
Ambiguous use of expand => resolved to "expand" => at
/usr/ill/lib/perl5/site_perl/Tk/Text.pm line 1038.
Ambiguous use of expand => resolved to "expand" => at
/usr/ill/lib/perl5/site_perl/Tk/Text.pm line 1075.

Then if I try to compile instrument
mcstas -t -o in14_tut.out.c in14_tut.instr

Then I crashes (mcgui disappears, core dumped). No 'cc' call is
displayed in mcgui, but I think the problem occurs here.
The manual processing works ok.

2- When using the POLARISATION macro, mcstas warns about comps that do
not handle that, but also crashes (seg fault) at the end.
The '.c' file is generated anyway.

Cheers again. EF.
