Thanks for your prompt response.  I see that this crash is caused by gcc's
-fstack-protector option, which is not enabled by default on any of my systems.
 A quick test program with gets() shows that an overflow can be silent without
the stack protector option and gives the *** stack smashing detected ** error
with it on both my Linux and FreeBSD systems (using gcc 4.1 on FreeBSD since
it's not the default yet).  I'm recompiling and will see if I can reproduce
your error now and go from there.
