System name:		(building 66 basement cluster, machines, doesn't
			seem to matter which one)
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.2P (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		xterm

(sorry about the above, i got the problem in bldg 66 and wrote this on
dialup at home)

What were you trying to do?
	I was using xmh.  the problem occurs consistently when you
edit more than one message (say, in the inbox).  I believe the error
happens exactly when you try to save the second message, though i'm
not quite sure at the moment; i'll check it when i next go into mit.

What's wrong:
	The program will crash, with the error "Cannot perform calloc"
or something like that.

What should have happened:
	well, xmh should have saved the edited message.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	none
