[ts-gen] Problems with Ubuntu 32-bit [Was: input corruption on mac]

[Ken Feng]

Hi Bill,

I am not 100% sure that 090904 is working on Ubuntu 32-bit as the
markets are closed atm, but the results certainly look promising.

I tried:
select bars CASH:IDEALPRO:AUD:USD 3;  wait 1;
select open;

and got:
  522|40841| 107954270|4|11| 0|# select bars CASH:IDEALPRO:AUD:USD 3; wait 1|
  522|40841| 107954331|1|13| 0|select bars CASH:IDEALPRO:AUD:USD 3;|
  522|40841| 107954362|2|50|
1|50|1|1|AUD|CASH||0.0000||1|IDEALPRO||USD||2|BID|0||||
  522|40841| 107977680|1| 2| 0|wait 1|
  522|40853| 122747967|4|11| 0|# select open;|
  522|40853| 122748019|1| 4| 0|select open;|
  522|40853| 122748035|2| 5| 1|5|1||||

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The SIGSEGV is gone and the ShimText looks very reasonable.

I will reconfirm on Monday when the exchanges are open.
Thank you for fixing this.
