   You might try magic-7.3;  we (MultiGiG) just taped out an AMI 1.5
chip using 7.3 and SCNA.80 without any troubles (although we'll see
what happens with my hack to SCNA.80 to get n-diff-in-n-well
varactors.  Otherwise, I'll need to see a stack trace from running
magic under a debugger.  Instructions are on my website, and vary
depending on how magic was compiled (e.g., with or without Tcl).

   It is probably a good idea to do the debug session, as I don't
like having a distribution version that segfaults on a standard-
issue technology file.  But the error may be system-dependent.
