[Insight-developers] chiarugi.uiowa : Tcl test seg.faults ?

[Hans Johnson]

Bill,

Removing the test does not solve the problem.  Anyone using the wrapped
deformation classes under a 64 bit operating system will end up will
segmentation faults.

The old adage of "if it's not tested, it's broken" is doubly valid since the
test clearly show that it is broken.

I would be OK with removing the wrapping of those classes for 64 bit
architectures, and removing the tests also.
