[metapost] With prologues=3 and SVG output, METAPOST dies with SIGSEGV

[Wojciech A. Koszek]

Hello,

I wanted to document my solution to a problem from the ``Cracking the coding
interview'' on measuring angles between clock's pointers. I have 1 figure
for this for now, and METAPOST crashes when I try to compile my image.

I figured it works fine with prologues=1 or 2 for both MPS and SVG output.

For prologues=3 it works fine with MPS, but gets a SIGSEGV with SVG as an
output.

SVG

Will finish OK:

	wget -O bug_2.mp http://pastebin.com/5irnjVHB
	mpost bug_2.mp

No go and make g_use_svg = 1. It will fails with ``Segmentation fault''.

My METAPOST:
