A few weeks ago I posted the following:

>We've been seeing many (1-4 per day) crashes on our Sun 4/280 running
>SunOS 4.0.3 with the message "panic:  Data fault" and "panic:  Text fault"
>(sometimes this message is preceded with "BAD TRAP").

with getty being the program (usually) that was running at the time.

Anyways, the post-4.0.3 serial line patches available from the Hotline
fixed the problem.  Thanks goes out to Greg Limes and Jim Gath at Sun
for helping out.
