I occasionally get a serious error within XtMalloc().  I get the following
error message on my DECstation 3100/Ultrix 4.1/X11R3/Motif 1.1.  I know
it's happening in XtMalloc via dbx...

pid 2423 (viewer) was killed on unaligned access, at pc 0x503498
Bus error (core dumped)

Has anyone out there in X-land experienced something like this?  Am I
running out of memory?  I'm passing it 5 (i.e. XtMalloc(5)) when it blows
up...

thanks in advance
rich
