I've hit the same thing.  Thinking perhaps I'd screwed something up,
I even rebuilt a system from virgin disks, reapplied the patch and tried
again.  Same problem.

Do have some good news though :-).  The clam shell executable I pulled
off of atari.archive.umich.edu (141.221.192.10) works great!  Of course,
I can't recreate it from source :-( (fairly simple source change gave me
a successful compile, but I immediately died with a malloc assert).
