I just completed the compilation of the R4 core distribution on
a Sun 4/60 running SunOS 4.0.3c.  Already I've encountered a problem:
when I fire up an xman process and attempt to get the window to display
a particular man section (any one will do), the dang thing aborts with
a segmentation violation.  A dbx session follows:

suntan342: dbx /usr/bin/X11/xman
Reading symbolic information...
Read 177 symbols

Any suggestions would be most welcome.
