Hi Thomas,

I had the same problem on OSF1.
The error occurs if libNew.so is used.
The solution is to recompile the root executable without this library.
e.g. in the roor directory execute:

cxx -o bin/root.exe main/src/rmain.o  \
      -Llib -lCore -lCint -lHist -lGraf -lGraf3d -lTree -lMatrix -lRint -lm

if you use root-config add the flag --nonew in front of all options.
