Default Free Linux image stacking software?

Does anyone know of a good solution for doing image stacking under Linux? I've found ImageJ, Java-based, and AstroStack, also Java-based, but AstroStack is mighty slow, running under Java, and has a limit on how much image it'll handle without upgrading to the paid version, and I forget just why, but I found ImageJ to be fairly poorly suited as well. I tried installing the usual Registax on my Windows, and running it under Wine, but that gives a trivial error that renders it completely useless (when I try to select the images for the stack, I get a "division by zero" error instead of file selection window). I'm still going to try installing the updated version (when I installed it, it was a beta version) and see if that fixes things, next time I'm booting into Windows.
But, isn't there some decent, free (beer and/or speech), native Linux (or even FreeBSD) software that will do the job? Or a plugin for the Gimp, even? I've scoured the Web pretty well, and not found a darned thing.
