When I tried compiling MBSE 1.0.6 and 1.0.4 under a fully updated Linux Mint
(Debian variant) I kept getting all kinds of seg faults.  At the time I didn't
feel like sorting out what broke so I never investigated it.  I was successful
geting 1.0.4 to compile and run back in May 2013 using Linux Mint.  So
something changed between then and now that broke something.  The only other
hard parts was finding all the deb support packages.  BTW both where on a 64
bit system.

P.S.  Sorry for the late reply.  I've been a bit neglectful of my bbs the past
couple of months.
