Are there any 'known' bugs in dump/rdump under Ultrix 4.1? All
of a sudden rdump and dump commands that have been working for
over year are dumping core with the following message:

  DUMP: SIGSEGV()  ABORTING!
Illegal instruction (core dumped)

This is happening under Ultrix 4.1 on a DECsystem 5820. The dump/rdump
command is working fine on a DECsystem 3100 running 4.1 though. The
strange thing is I upgraded the system to 4.1 last Wednesday and the dumps
ran fine until tonight!

Any ideas?

Thanks, Roland
