Hi,
I just installed ROOT from the svn repository on a fresh Fedora 13 machine. It compiled fine and I’m able to execute a few of the demos in the tutorial directory. However, demos.C and benchmarks.C fail (as may others). It appears to be failing at the line:
gROOT->SetMacroPath(Form("%s:%s",current,dir.Data()));
From the root shell, I can crash ROOT by typing Form("%s\n",“hello world”) as illustrated below.

Type ? for help. Commands must be C++ statements.
Enclose multiple statements between { }.
Welcome to the ROOT tutorials
Type “.x demos.C” to get a toolbar from which to execute the demos
Type “.x demoshelp.C” to see the help window

Other commands such as new TBrowser() work. Any ideas?
