System name:		george2-sun
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7Q (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	finger myself  ( finger cstng)

What's wrong:
	I encountered segmentation fault and a core dump
is generated. I have reported this several times and I think
I now have identify the source.

The source is the following : it is related to simulink41 
(I haven't tried matlab41 or matlab or simulink)

I have noticed that when I first log in and finger
myself , there is not segmentation fault. But then, shortly
after, the error will appear. So today, I finger myself
after every usual commands that I do. And right after
I opened simulink41, the error appeared.

i.e. after 

add matlab
finger cstng  ( no segmentation fault)
simulink41 &
finger cstng   (segmentation fault)

So it must be linked to that software.  Once this 
has happened, no matter from which xterm I finger myself,
I'll see the segmentation error.

I would appreciate someone telling me what's the 
status of this bug. I've reported this several
times, hardware tells me that it is unusal
that I don't hear anything from you guys.


What should have happened:
	No segmentation fault.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
