What were you trying to do?
Add the meeting described in [0397] in New_Meetings. I was
using the version of discuss in /usr/athena/bin/discuss.
What's wrong:
When I typed am at the "discuss: " prompt, it dumped core with
a segmentation violation. When I started discuss again and attempted
to add the meeting in the same way, it succeeded (i.e., this is not a
repeatable problem).
The core dump is in /mit/coredumps/core.mhpower.920210.rt.discuss.F.
% dbx discuss /usr/tmp/mhp/core
dbx version 3.5 of 7/28/91 17:28 (minos).
Type 'help' for help.

What should have happened:
It should have added the meeting.
