Stability Problems in Cramér-Type Characterization in case of I.I.D. Summands

The stability property in Cramer's characterization of the normal law is considered in the case of identically distributed summands. As opposite results, instability is shown with respect to strong distances including the entropic distance to normality (addressing a question of M. Kac).
