What am I doing wrong here?

Following is a tiny wrapper program that I wrote to use libwww to simply
retrieve files, and send them out stdout. I find that it works with the
first http URL I put in, but if I put in a second one, it core dumps. Here
is the program...

  #include "WWWLib.h"
  #include "stubs.h"  /* Just a bunch of HText_* function stubs */
  #define MAX_URL_LEN 1024

  main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
    char       url[MAX_URL_LEN];
    HTRequest *request;

    /* Initialize the library */
    HTLibInit();
    WWW_TraceFlag = TRUE;

    /* Set up the static part of our request structure */
    request = HTRequest_new();
    request->output_format = WWW_SOURCE;
    request->output_stream = HTFWriter_new(stdout, TRUE);

    /* Loop until close of stdin, reading in URLs */
    while (gets(url))
      HTLoadAbsolute(url, request);

    HTLibTerminate();
  }

Is there anything obviously wrong with it?

Here is the output, after I put in the second URL...
  http://www.cen.com/mw3/
  Composing Authorization for www.cen.com:80/mw3/
  HTAASetup_lookup: No template matched `mw3/' (so probably not protected)
  HTMIME: MIME content type is text/html, converting to */*
  StreamStack. Constructing stream stack for text/html to */*
  pid 13154 (get_http) was killed on an unaligned access, at pc 0x429efc
  Bus error (core dumped)

And here is the dbx stack trace (as I mentioned before, for some reason
CodeCenter chokes when trying to link in libwww, anybody know why?)...
