It appears that Pro/Engineer and my window manager (twm, /usr/bin/X11/twm)
don't like each other.
When I try to start Pro/Engineer on SGI, Pro/E appears to hang.
Pro/Engineer places its windows, they never appear as more than empty
rectangles, and then the windowmanager dies after a few seconds.
I have to kill pro/engineer from the shell, (Dash is occasionally useful
for something. =), and I get a coredump from twm:
[2] Exit 15 proeng
[1] + Segmentation fault twm (core dumped)
I don't have room to hang onto the core dump, but the error is very
repeatable. I have no idea whether this is a twm bug, a Pro/E bug, or
both. I can start Pro/E fine under mwm or 4Dwm on the SGIs.
