Hi Murali,

thanks,

I did it and executable fold environments work again now. It seems to me
there is still something wrong, because I got the error message (from
TeXmacs) "gs_to_png failed for ramdisc.//image.ps", but I am not sure
that it was not there from previous attempts; on the other hand there
has been another Ghostscript crash with again "gs crashed with SIGSEGV
in gx_default_fill_path()" in the /var/crash/_usr_bin_gs.1000.crash
file, but despite this the "exec-folds" still work.

If there is any further idea I would appreciate hearing about it :-)

Giovanni
