What were you trying to do?
read a man page in the rw consult directory.
What's wrong:
> man -M/afs/.athena/contrib/consult/man net_lookup
Segmentation fault
What should have happened:
It should have said something like "invalid argument" or so. Just a
segmentation violation is not nice. Ideally, it would say:
use: man -M /afs/.athena/contrib/consult/man net_lookup
