The reason why the test printf() produces no visible effects before the
segmentation fault has already been provided by John Gordon. For such
debugging printouts, I generally prefer fprintf(stderr, format,
arguments) over printf(format, arguments), to avoid such problems.

There might be some fairly obvious reason why the segfault is occurring
(I've only taken a quick glance at it) but without knowing the context,
it could be very difficult to locate the problem. It would make things a
lot easier for those interested in helping you, if you could provide a
complete, simple program demonstrating the problem. That program should
set atm and ctm to point at appropriately initialized arrays. It would
also be helpful to know precisely which compiler you're using, and with
what options turned on.
