    Subject: Guard faults (large local arrays in Fortran)

	[Side question.  One of these monsters run in a new shell will result in
	 a guard fault.  Run it again immediately, and it seemingly works
	 properly.   Why????]

Was this on a sr8 or a sr9 node?  We decided it was probably wrong for
guard segments to stay valid after the faulting program exits, so at sr9,
guard segments get reset whenever a program exits.

This is not a problem for those of us who use the csh, of course.
