What were you trying to do?
	Use Raul Acevedo's man.el package for emacs.
(~acevedo/Emacs/man.el)  I have succesfully used this package several
times on this particular machine.  I did M-x man in a
almost-newly-started emacs.  It was loaded, asked me for a manpage,
and proceeded to 'clean up' the manpage.  It then informed me that it
was done cleaning the manpage, and proceeded to sit, doing nothing apparent.

What's wrong:
	After sitting for about 20 seconds, it exited. No message,
just dump core and left.  Core in /mit/bitbucket/core.emacs.yandros.F

What should have happened:
	If it really needed to dump core, shouldn't there have been a
message of some kind?
