You'd think so, wouldn't you.  But it looks like only the Windows CW tools support OSBDM.  Eclipse-based stuff for linux doesn't seem to.

I'm quite certain now the segfault is caused by sprite itself.  To probe further, I'd have to step back into the sprite code, which I believe the license doesn't allow.
