It is a more precise term than what segmentation fault also it means the same
:-)  In German nouns can be composed, so it is actually three words:

Speicher - zugriff(s) - fehler

memory   - access     - fault

I am not sure what you are trying to do here with uv_mapping inside the
function.  I thought what you were seeing was related to another function
problem in beta 13 ("strange recursion error" thread in this group) and did
not look at your example, but it turns out that of course "uv_mapping" doesn't
even make sense inside functions.  I have fixed the parser and it will no
longer accept it in the next beta.

This example was the shortened version of a try to make a uv_mapped 
layered textures (with different finishes and bumps for each layer) for 
a mesh2 object (which works now:-) ).

Since it was my very first try with functions some results were a bit 
strange like the one I posted.
Like you said it doesn't make too much sense and I don't use this 
construction at all.
But when I was playing around I was just wondering that this combination 
completely crashes pov without any warning.

Pardon my spelling (I don't know German), but here's my favourite:



Love that language :)

Yes, of course, the 's' should be single, as I've heard it pronounced
as a 'z.' I figured the wrong spelling of schirm because I remember
hearing a long 'i' sound. Anyway, thanks for the corrections :)

>second, this one is longer:



Yeah, right, I remember a friend of mine who lives in Austria now
sending me this correction. She was really fond of the triple f :)

I've set up the follow-up just in case but I'd rather end it here,
too. Thanks again for the longer + corrected version.

  Also Finnish has compound words and theoretically there's no limit on
how long words you can make (although it's difficult to make extremely
long words which really mean something rational).
  But one long compund Finnish word which is very usual can be found in
most electricity meters:
  Kolmivaihevaihtovirtakilowattituntimittari.
  (Means something like three-phase alternating current kilowatt meter.)
