To: tex-k@tug.cs.umb.edu

xdvi aborts with segmentation fault core dump when click-on any shrink box
(100%, 33%, etc.) no other problems found to date.

Solaris 2.4

SunOS dryfly 5.4 Generic_101945-45 sun4m sparc

kpathsea version 2.6 used for testing

xdvik-20a

$ ./xdvi --version 
xdvi(k) 20a



cc: C Development Set  (CDS) SPARCompilers 2.0.1 03 Sep 1992

$ gcc --version
2.7.2

aborts with either compiler with or without optimization

sample truss trace output at abort time:
read(3, "05011AB9C5C49F86\0\0\0 )".., 32)       = 32
    Incurred fault #6, FLTBOUNDS  %pc = 0x0001AC40
      siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x677366A0
    Received signal #11, SIGSEGV [default]
      siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x677366A0
        *** process killed ***

5) run configure
  --enable-ipc   (for TeXview)
  --with-nextwin (for ?. included because it's true)
  --with-ps=dps  (for ?. included because it's true)
  --without-xdvi (saves tons of errors)

  I had to create an 'uname' substitute for some test in
  texk/web2c/configure. It simply says 'NEXTSTEP'.
