Segmentation fault (core dumped)
There were no debugging symbols in the binary, so a backtrace on the
corefile was unhelpful:
(gdb) where
#0 0x4014d64b in rindex ()
#1 0x0 in ?? ()
The problem should be repeatable, but if not, there is a gzipped copy
of the corefile in /mit/mwhitson/Project/xmcd.core.gz.
What should have happened:
xmcd should not have dumped core. xmcd should not have been
misconfigured.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
No.
