+### A tip from Cody:
+
+The reason this is crashing is that the array `irk` is being accessed way out of
+bounds by the int `gnat`. For instance:
+
+```
+Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
+#0  0x0000000000401335 in main (ABBA@entry=<optimized out>, tang@entry=<optimized out>, gnat@entry=<optimized out>, Near@entry=<optimized out>)
+    at ver2.c:23
+23	&&gnat!({)Near,noon,/*krelc*/)<0&&(Near= -  	irk[-gnat--]-2)))&&main(ABBA,
+(gdb) p gnat
+$1 = -518733305
+```
+
+The real trouble is that the code is generated and in a complex way.
