What were you trying to do?
Use Mosaic
What's wrong:
Got a core dump while using the OVERDRIVE events database
( http://www.ipworld.com) which appears not yet ready for prime time.
believe I clicked on a line in the arts events page trying
to rouse some response from not-yet-interactive form.
(This was after doing same for similar seminars events form which brought
up an emacs window with HTML? script of that page -- which I killed)
What should have happened:
[Please replace this line with your information.]
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
was finally able to use dbx and get following info from core dump:
core file header read successfully
program terminated by signal ABRT (abort)

(/mit/sunsoft/sunwspro/bin/dbx)
May not be very helpful without symbolic info which could not be read;
see below for messages from dbx on that:
athena% dbx /mit/sipb/sun4etc/Mosaic core
Reading symbolic information for /mit/sipb/sun4etc/Mosaic
dbx: warning: No symbol table for "/mit/sipb/sun4etc/Mosaic". Perhaps it is stripped?
dbx: warning: symbol pointing to dynamic linker <-> dbx interface area (_DYNAMIC) not found in "/mit/sipb/sun4etc/Mosaic"
core file header read successfully
Maybe your instructions on how to get this info should be updated.
E.g., I had trouble finding dbx in first place (finally figured out
had to add sunsoft); had trouble when where Mosaic pointed to
script and not real thing; and then problem above with no symbol table.
Or maybe you shouldn't bother asking for bug report at all if you already
know about these bugs...
