[gmx-developers] trajectory handling crash on windows (4.6.*)

Problem:
The default stack size allocation Visual Studio 2012 is 1MB.
The above code therefore will lead to stack corruption in
some cases (it segfaulted).

Solution (on 4.6.5):

687c687
<     static unsigned char buf[CPT_CHK_LEN];

 >     unsigned char buf[CPT_CHK_LEN];
