If were are running emacs-18.51 under X-Windows (A.03.02) on a
hp9000/318 (hpux 6.2) the system crashes reporting a bus error and stops.
The error accurs in routine
    init_sys_modes
at the statement
    ioctl(0, TIOCGETP, &old_gtty);

It seems to be a bug in hpux or X-Windows.
Does anybody know a fix of that bug ?
