I have Openwin 2.0 on a SPARCstation 1 running 4.0.3c (mono)

While trying to get some experience with tty subwindows, I tried the
following little program:

----------BEGIN CODE------------
#include <xview/xview.h>
#include <xview/tty.h>

Frame	frame;
Tty	tty;

main(ac, av)
int	ac;
char	*av;
{
	xv_init(XV_INIT_ARGC_PTR_ARGV, &ac, av, NULL);
	frame = (Frame)xv_create(NULL, FRAME, NULL);
	tty = (Tty)xv_create(frame, TTY,
		WIN_ROWS,		34,
		WIN_COLUMNS,		80,
		NULL);
	window_fit(frame);
	xv_main_loop(frame);
}
----------END CODE--------------

This compiles and runs fine until I run 'vi' in the window!
It will dump core when the terminal is set to sun-cmd and
vi is started.  When I change the terminal type to just 'sun'
everything is fine.
DBX reports the error to be in 'ttysw_ansi_escape'
Anyone else seen this problem?  Known solutions?
