Robert,

I wonder if the problem is related to the C/C++ mixing at all.  Instead, 
you may have a memory access bug causing the crash, such as using an 
invalid pointer or overwriting some portion of your program stack.

Since you mentioned that you are using Linux, you might want to look at 
testing your program with Valgrind, a memory debugging tool available 
for Linux:

   http://valgrind.org/

Valgrind can be used to detect several types of memory access errors.

Good luck!
