segfault with layout() after closing X11() device (PR#8970)
I unable to reproduce this on my Solaris 8 64-bit systems (neither compiled with gcc nor cc) nor any other 64-bit system. If possible, can you run R under a suitable debugger (e.g. R -d gdb for gcc) and find out what is pointing to address zero.
