Dear Forum

There seems to be a problem with the function Group();
I have attached a file named "testgroup". You should use this in gap with
Read("testgroup").
Then the function NewGroup(n,q) should create a new group depending from
the parameters n and q, n being a positive integer and q being a prime
power.
When you use this, you will get a segmentation fault and gap will be
terminated. (I have tested this on different systems, unix/windows)
When you replaces the function "Group()" by "GroupWithGenerators()" in
line 72, the problem doesn't occur, and you should indeed have the desired
new group.

Regards,
Jan De Beule
