Recently, in a mad attempt to regain some disk space, I decided to strip
some of the shared libraries used by sunview. A few dayes later I found
out that sunview now core-dumped as soon as it was invoked. All dbx could
tell that the problem occured somewhere inside etext() called by start().
Can anyone tell me what strip did to the library to cause this problem and
is there anyway to fix the library easily (I ended up restoring the files
from Sun's distribution tape). This was on a Sun 3 with SunOS 4.0.1.
Thanks
