Just a thought:  if your version of crypt.c has line
that declares "L" and "R" to be arrays of size 32,
your version is depending on L and R being allocated
adjacent to each other.  This is an ancient bug that
no one ever bothers to fix.

Try instead:
	char L[64];
	#define R (L+32)
That might fix things.  Then again, maybe not.
