[developers] Error when generating wordforms

Hi all,


Jeremy and I have been trying to generate all of the (many, many) wordforms
licensed by Emily's Wambaya grammar via 'output-lex-and-derived', and come
across the following error:

  FOLLOW-POINTERS inconsistency: dag contains temporary structure outside
  context of a set of unification operations

In Jeremy's words:

  I've slowly been removing items from the lexicon to see if I can find that
  culprit (I haven't so far). The really bizarre thing is that Lisp dies at a
  different point after each (15 hour) iteration.

Any ideas what's causing this or where to look in terms of debugging the
problem?


Tim
