It would be nice to know your versions.
OS, as (binutils), gcc...
From your next informations, it seems you are using Ubuntu 64-bit.

Good.

However, I have updated the mintbin package only once since the 
beginning, and it was only about a compilation issue. So nothing has 
been fixed since your version.

Your problem is strange because m68k-atari-mint-stack works fine for all 
of us.

But since you are using a 64-bit OS, I suspect that the stack tool works 
well on 32-bit hosts, but fails on 64-bit hosts. Probably a small bug, 
but should be fixed.
This scenario has to be verified.

Yes, as I told in my initial announce, the Ubuntu 64-bit binaries will 
be available when someone compiles them. Since the source packages are 
all clean (except GCC), they are easy to recompile on any Debian-like 
system. I can send you the detailed instructions, if you like.
But before that we should fix the stack tool, if this is really a 64-bit 
problem.
