I'm using an old pr1 revision from June 24 on RH9.  I've seen no major
problems.

-k does appear to be broken.  It simply doesn't work on this version. 
"-k *" tells me to provide either a * or a single character.  A single
character gives me no results.

My test index is 124 MB.  I don't think it's a size issue.  Maybe
there's some document in your dataset which is triggering a problem. 
Using gdb as Bill suggested might help find it.

As far as index size goes you would be limited to 2 GB on 32-bit
filesystems.
