Yes, use the debugger.

    gdb <your-app>
    run
    ... seg fault
    bt

This will give you a stack trace.  That might help.  You can also poke
around and find out why the crash occurred by printing local
variables, looking at the source, etc.

It seems very unlikely.

You should probably compile from .java directly to .o (as well as to
.class since you need the .class file to make the .h file).  The
compiler can do a bit better when compiling from .java as compared to
compiling from .class.
