I didn't get the person's name, but the file was in sjmiller's
directory, something like
/mit/sjmiller/sooahs/Draw/figs/Regressionanalysisoutput.fig
You may be right that the prcmd buffer overflowed, although I don't
think it would have been much more than 150 characters, i.e., if it
gets filled in with something like
fig2dev -Lps -c -P -m 1.000000 -l xxx /tmp/xfig-print123456 | lpr -J \
/mit/sjmiller/sooahs/Draw/figs/Regressionanalysisoutput.fig -Pw20-east-4
I think it's also quite possible that "char syspr[60]" was too small.
