[Rivet] Segmentation Fault when running Rivet 2.5.0

[Andy Buckley]

We'll look into this as soon as there's a GCC6 system within developer 
reach. I'm guessing it's due to something like Cython (or at least the 
version that we used in our Rivet tarball build) not yet supporting the 
GCC6 binary interface... but I don't know the details.

It would be interesting to know if you can build Rivet using the 
"developer mode" of the bootstrap script and GCC6 -- that will 
regenerate the Python interfacing code rather than relying on the 
version that we bundled. Use like this: INSTALL_RIVETDEV=1 ./rivet-bootstrap
