Segfault when loading the Midgard GIR file

[bergie]

This script:

var Midgard, gir;
gir = require("./build/default/girepository.node");
gir.init();
Midgard = gir.load("Midgard");

Causes:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Midgard GIR file is from Ubuntu OBS packages, and today's checkout of node-gir.

Might be a problem also in Midgard end: https://github.com/midgardproject/midgard-core/issues/120

I'll update the bug as soon as I know which side the problem lies.

[swick]

my pull request (https://github.com/creationix/node-gir/pull/6) shoud fix it.

[bergie]

@swick confirmed, now I can open a Midgard DB connection: http://lists.midgard-project.org/pipermail/dev/2011-September/003085.html
