I had the same problem and have found two bugs:

In starchart.c, line 243 old:
	char ras[2], ....
new:
	char ras[20], ...

In starchart.c, line 757 old:
	    sscanf(cbuf, "%*5s%f%f%f %[^\n]", &ra, &de, &sc, legend);
new:
	    sscanf(cbuf, "%*5s%lf%lf%lf %[^\n]", &ra, &de, &sc, legend);

This two changes fixes the bugs.
Bernd.
