"Analyse particles" does never start for stack analysis

Dear everyone

I'm using the "Analyse particle" function from the "Analyse" menu on images
which I have thresholded.
When doing it on a single image, this works fine ; however with a whole
stack, ImageJ seems to give up after asking wether it should process the
whole stack : the dialog "Process all N images?" appears, I click Yes,
and... nothing ever happens.

This doesn't work either with the stack from sample "Bat Cochlea Volume".

However, if I duplicate just the first image from a stack, and run Analyse
particles on it, I get the result and drawing of outline if I asked for it,
for that single image. But trying to do the same duplicating a few images,
it still stops after the dialog "Process all N images?", and I don't even
get the "save measurements" dialog.

The funny thing is that I used to do that in just the same way and got the
analysis to work, on the same data. I've tried versions 1.43l, 1.43o and
1.43r on 2 different computers with different linux install on which this
used to work. I've tried moving away my ~/.imagej configuration directory.
To no avail...

Any idea of what may be going wrong or what I may be doing wrong?
Cheers.
Jocelyn
