"GNU Emacs 18.50.40G of Fri Mar 25 1988 on paris (berkeley-unix)"
I hit a control-g on /mit/emacs/emacs at an interesting time (I think
I was in the midst of completing on a buffer list, I am not really
sure... maybe you can tell from somewhere in the core file, if you can
find the `last 100 keystrokes' buffer...)
The core file is in eichin:cores/emacs.88.apr.1
I tried loading it into dbx, hit t, and got another core file.
That one is in eichin:cores/dbx.88.apr.1
adb and gdb handled it fine. These cores are on priam now; they will
go away soon! Please grab them today (Friday) if they are of any
interest.

Postscript: the backtraces from emacs and dbx... Anyone have an
UNSTRIPPED copy of dbx to look at?
