Another fun AIX coredump sans data segment, I see. The stack traces
reported by dbx and adb are different, a situation which usually causes
me to rapidly lose interest in the problem.
Anyway, I can't repeat the problem, so I was wondering if you can. I
tried running nvi on combine.c in the gccdev locker in an xterm brought
up from an RS/6000, but I wasn't able to make it die by paging through
the file. Is there anything else I should know? Did you have a .exrc
file at the time? Was the xterm of unusual dimension?
As far as the compiler goes, nvi was built with gcc 2. I don't see any
reason to believe that rebuilding with a new xlc would improve anything
