Apparently the Ubuntu version of gcc has stack checking enabled by default. 
Add "-fno-stack-check" to the CFLAGS options in the Makefile and this should 
fix it.

If you keep on having problems, you should look up "__stack_chk_fail Ubuntu" 
on Google - this problem apparently affects many programs, not just PTLsim.
