#338 Failed assertion in hypertex.c, hdvips_add_anchor

[Anonymous]

Hi,
I was viewing a dvi document with quite a few images and then selecting the zoom option on the page with the images and then xdvi stopped working. This is the output:
************************************************************
XDvi 22.84.9 (Xaw toolkit): Failed assertion:
hypertex.c:1096: "info->curr_cnt > 0": hdvips_add_anchor must be called after add_anchor()!
Aborting now. Please report this as a bug to:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=23164&atid=377580
If a core dump has been produced, please invoke:
gdb xdvi-xaw3d.bin core
Then type "bt", and include the resulting output in your bug report.
************************************************************
I'm sorry I'm a bit clueless, but I thought it might help if I reported this.
I'm using a style file etc from here:

Best regards,
John.

I have had a similar problem for years on both linux and cygwin. The problem never occurs with kdvi or yap. For example:

************************************************************
XDvi 22.84.9 (Xaw toolkit): Failed assertion:
/home/mingw/cygwin/netrel/src/tetex-bin-3.0.0-3/texk/xdvik/hypertex.c:956: "info->anchors != NULL": info->anchors should have been allocated before
Aborting now. Please report this as a bug to:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=23164&atid=377580
If a core dump has been produced, please invoke:
gdb xdvi-xaw.bin core
Then type "bt", and include the resulting output in your bug report.
************************************************************

It only occurs with a huge file I work on, and sometimes is not a problem. Usually it occurs when I try to follow a link to a place near the end of the output.
