Having just had the same problem, I think I've found a small bug in the
code, whereby on lines 6007 and 6012, the subscript to xvertex is out of
range. Changing this from xvertex[4] to xvertex[3] (which I'm guessing is
what the author intended...) certainly cured the assertion failure in my
case, and otherwise produces sensible numbers (ie. exactly the same as
before, for the 99% of my structures that were not afflicted by the
failure). But perhaps someone with a better understanding of how the
program works could tell me if this hack is reasonable?

cheers,
Chris
