System name:		m37-318-1
Type and version:	KN02ba 7.4G
Display type:		PMAG-BA 

What were you trying to do?
	I was in xmh, using the Edit mode from the View menu on a file in my
drafts directory. Once I finished, I executed the Save Msg command from the 
View menu.

What's wrong:
	The program aborted, The xmh window disappeared, and following msg 
was displayed in the xterm window:

pid 7628 (xmh) was killed on an unaligned access, at pc 0x4548a8

[1]    Bus error            xmh

	Although the modifications to the msg seem to have been saved properly,
before the program was aborted.  I have encountered this same bug several times
before.

What should have happened:
	Ususally, after the file is saved, xmh continues on waiting for the 
next command.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
