Hi,

i use the incremental builder (CGAL/Triangulation_incremental_builder_3.h) to
reconstruct the adjacency information. This algorithm crashes during the
reconstruction of inifite cell adjacency. Now, I want to find out why
"Triangulation_incremental_builder_3" crashes. Maybe I should post a minimal
code snipplet, which causes this crash.
