From: Bill Sommerfeld <wesommer@ATHENA.MIT.EDU>
To: bugs@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
System type, version: (VS2) Version 6.0R
System name: anubis
What's wrong:
Running ranlib over the file "/mit/wesommer/bugs/crashes_ranlib.a"
causes ranlib to dump core.
<wesommer@anubis> {/mit/wesommer/bugs}
% ranlib crashes_ranlib.a
Segmentation violation (core dumped)
<wesommer@anubis> {/mit/wesommer/bugs}
%
What should have happened:
It shouldn't crash.
[This is probably a good project for a new watchmaker who wants to
learn something about object module formats..]
