it is definately a bug, anyway, I just fixed it.  The copy-on-write scheme is
unfortunately not completely transparent inside the code so some functions
need to help it out, and some of these were doing optimizations which made
the copy-on-write fail.  But anyway it is fixed now and I've added tests for
these bugs to the testsuite.  Thanks for the report!

Well parts of Dr.Genius are in C++ (mainly dr geo and the canvas) and the
genius engine itself is C only.

Well this should be fixed in the next release, whenever that happens, or you
can get this from CVS
