vim5 (on Linux at least) gets a SEGV and dies when you load up help twice.
e.g:
athena% vim5
:help
:q
:help
The core file isn't all that useful, but it appears to be dying in
some curses function?
(gdb) where
#0 0x401879d9 in __kill ()
#1 0x809a6d5 in mch_windexit ()
#2 0x809a6a6 in mch_windexit ()
#3 0x8080a83 in getout ()
#4 0x808b8fb in preserve_exit ()
#5 0x8099aa9 in mch_delay ()
#6 0xbfffefcc in ?? ()
It also crashes in X though. (vim5 -g).
Anyway. Maybe installing the full vim5.0 release instead of a beta
version would help.
