I just wanted to give simulated annealing a try. My own attempts crashed, so I decided to try the sample from

However, it crashes exactly in the same way, when calling Minimize():

*** glibc detected *** /opt/pi/ext/dload/root/bin/root.exe: free(): invalid pointer: 0xbf8d7710 ***

and than lots of other stuff.

I’m using root 5.27/01 from svn, but not the latest…
