John,
We experienced issues with the 2001.08 version as well. We were getting
some core dumps and such related to Presto. To get around this issue in the
short term we:
set hdlin_enable_presto false
in our .syn* setup file. This resolved our issue for now by making the
Presto stuff not run. Maybe that will help other users? Obviously if they
rely on Presto features, this won't be a good solution...
