Crafty 20.1 seems to start normally, but when I make it think, it crashes immediately. I tried running it with gdb, and this is what I got christos@glorfindel ~ $ gdb crafty ...

seems to work fine for x86
Your output is supicious as well. How does your crafty know to look in /usr/local/share for book files? Is this a stock install from "emerge crafty"? What other config steps have you done?
It appears to work fine for me too (amd64). darktama@araqiel ~ $ emerge --info Portage 2.1_pre6-r3 (default-linux/amd64/2006.0, gcc-4.1.0, glibc-2.4-r1, 2.6.16-rc5-ck1 x86_64)================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16-rc5-ck1 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre16 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.4.2-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.91.0.6 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -g -ggdb -ftracer -fprefetch-loop-arrays -ftree-vectorize" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -g -ggdb -ftracer -fprefetch-loop-arrays -ftree-vectorize" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig buildpkg ccache distlocks metadata-transfer multilib-strict parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms splitdebug strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/Gentoo/ http://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/Gentoo/" LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_ALL="de_DE.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bdirect -Wl,--as-needed" LINGUAS="en de" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/home/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/overlays/toolchain /usr/local/overlays/xgl-overlay /usr/local/overlays/gnome-experimental /usr/local/overlays/bluetooth-alsa /usr/local/overlays/asneeded" SYNC="rsync://rsync.au.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X a52 aac acl acpi alsa apache2 audiofile avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts browserplugin bzip2 cairo cdr cli crypt ctype cups dba dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode expat fastbuild ffmpeg firefox flac foomaticdb force-cgi-redirect ftp gd gif glitz gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal hardened imagemagick imlib ipv6 jpeg kde kdeenablefinal ldap lm_sensors logitech-mouse lzw lzw-tiff mad memlimit mmap mono mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin offensive ogg opengl pam pcre pdflib perl png posix python qt quicktime readline samba sasl sdl session simplexml soap sockets spell spl ssl svg tcpd theora threads tiff tokenizer truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb vorbis xcomposite xinerama xml xml2 xpm xprint xscreensaver xsl xv xvid zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard kernel_linux linguas_en linguas_de userland_GNU video_cards_nv video_cards_nvidia" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS

It seems that the segmentation fault was happening because my user did not have write permissions to the directory where crafty was trying to keep its learning data. Although in the start it says "Unable to open file ... learning disabled", maybe it isnt disabled. And lastly to answer your question: Yes, I simply emerged crafty. As for the config steps, I use the following environment variables: CRAFTY_BOOK_PATH=/usr/local/share/chess/crafty CRAFTY_LOG_PATH=/usr/local/share/chess/crafty/log CRAFTY_TB_PATH=/usr/local/share/chess/tb
