I am now running it with ncurses interface, and it's been running for
40+ minutes with no shares (neither accepted nor rejected), and it did
not segfault yet.  Maybe I was extremely lucky to have it find a share
in just 1 minute or so (twice) before, or maybe the ncurses interface
makes some problem (unrelated to finding a share) go away.

We need to do some GPU runs and then calculate the expected time to find
a share on Epiphany at the current super low speed (I am getting 1027 h/s
average for these 40+ minutes).
