At our installation, we have found that every version of XFig from the
earliest to the lastest (2.0) has an unfortunate tendency to crash regularly.
Since XFig is a popular program, I can't believe that every one is suffering
like this.  On the other hand, I have no idea why our installation would
be special (Sun workstations running R3, now upgrading to R4).  No change
in our enviornment has had any effect on the problem.  What are other
peoples' experience with XFig?  It might be best to send mail to me unless
you have some insight into the problem to share with the whole world.
