System name:		copilot
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.0F
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	Resize xclock.
	Use sendbug

What's wrong:
	Using twm, no titlebar, xclock -update 1 (analog mode)
	I resized the xclock window using M-left button until it was
about 2-3 pixels high.  The workstation then froze and crashed, bringing
up the Hit any ket to start screen.

	copilot% sendbug
/usr/athena/sendbug: : not found
Please enter the subject for this bug report.  (Generally, this means
the name of the program or locker with which you are having problems.)
 --> xclock, sendbug itself

What should have happened:
	The workstation shouldn't have crashed.  This has been tried on
a VS2 and VS2000 and done the same thing.

	The line with </usr/athena/sendbug: : not found> shouldn't have
been there.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	The xclock behavior isn't in the man page, but I've heard of it
happening before.
