[Rivet] problem with yaml

Hi,

I've been having problems installing Rivet, both on my department central
machine, and on lxplus at CERN.

I configure with the following lines:

 ./configure
--with-hepmc=/data/atlas/atlasdata3/king/HepSoftware/HepMC-2.04.02/install
--with-boost-incpath=/data/atlas/atlasdata3/king/HepSoftware/RivetBootstrap/build/boost_1_44_0/
--with-fastjet=/data/atlas/atlasdata3/king/HepSoftware/fastjet-2.4.2/install/
--disable-pyext --prefix=$PWD

'make' would then work correctly, but

'make check'
would then throw a errors regarding yaml:

make[4]: Entering directory `/afs/
cern.ch/user/r/rking/scratch0/HepSoftware/Rivet-1.4.0/src/Tools/yaml-cpp'
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'YAML::BadDereference'
  what():  yaml-cpp: error at line 0, column 0: bad dereference
/bin/sh: line 5: 17488 Aborted                 ${dir}$tst
FAIL: testYAML
============================================
1 of 1 test failed
Please report to rivet at projects.hepforge.org
============================================

If I try to compile using 'make install' it will fail.

Do you have any ideas as to how I should rectify this issue?

Regards

Robert
