Andreas: can you review this and give me feedback, please? In crwimage.cpp CiffHeader::add()#793. Change:

        if (!pRootDir_) pRootDir_ = new CiffDirectory;
        if ( pRootDir_) pRootDir_->add(crwDirs, crwTagId)->setValue(buf);
To:
        if ( pRootDir_) {
            CiffComponent* child = pRootDir_->add(crwDirs, crwTagId);
            if ( child )   child->setValue(buf);
        }
It no longer crashes, however I'm not sure about the side effects. Here's the output now:
625 rmills@rmillsmm:~/gnu/exiv2/trunk $ exiv2 -pa --grep owner/i exiv2-canon-powershot-s40.crw 
Exif.Canon.OwnerName                         Ascii      15  Andreas Huggel
626 rmills@rmillsmm:~/gnu/exiv2/trunk $ exiv2 -M'set Exif.Canon.OwnerName robin' exiv2-canon-powershot-s40.crw 
627 rmills@rmillsmm:~/gnu/exiv2/trunk $ exiv2 -pa --grep owner/i exiv2-canon-powershot-s40.crw 
Exif.Canon.OwnerName                         Ascii       6  robin
628 rmills@rmillsmm:~/gnu/exiv2/trunk $

I discovered this while working on crw-test.sh which seems to be severely broken. That test was never "modernised" when I refactored the test scripts to use test/functions.source several years ago. It references the program crwparse which doesn't appear to be built. In fact crwparse.cpp and crwedit.cpp are not compiled: 

640 rmills@rmillsmm:~/gnu/exiv2/trunk $ find . -name "crw*.cpp" 
./src/crwedit.cpp
./src/crwimage.cpp
./src/crwparse.cpp
641 rmills@rmillsmm:~/gnu/exiv2/trunk $ find . -name "crw*.o" 
./src/.libs/crwimage.o
./src/crwimage.o
642 rmills@rmillsmm:~/gnu/exiv2/trunk $

I'll undertake the work to fix the test harness. I will either build and run crwparse (and crwedit) or eliminate crwparse from the test suite. I haven't examined crwparse.cpp and crwedit.cpp which are possibly obsolete.

r4482 I have committed the change discussed about as it solves the immediate issue of the crash and gets crw-test.sh working again. I have removed the dependency between the crw-test.sh and crwparse. I'm not going to do anything about crwparse.cpp and crwedit.cpp at this time.
