I'm trying to get rn running on a sun 386i 4.0.2. I've got bnews 2.11 and the rn is patch level 39. When I do a search of newsgroups(/?) without specifying a search pattern I generate a SIGSEGV and exit. This is because the char * in the reg. exp. struct (COMEX) is not allocated soon enough. So is this a documented bug, with a fix? anybody seen it? am i doing something wrong? any help would be appreciated. matt ammann
