Comment (by MarcusCalhoun-Lopez):
Calling Fortran subroutines from C functions is a tricky business,
especially when strings are passed between them.\\
The last release of PGPOT was almost eight years ago, so GCC 8 was never
tested.
The problem seems to be when {{{cpgmtxt}}} is called more than once from
different functions.\\
I have no idea why this might be the case, but I will patch the demo
program to call {{{cpgmtxt}}} only once.
I believe that is the best we can do without a great deal of time and
effort.
