If I set the stacksize limit to anything other than its default value,
"limit stacksize 500k" for example, and then run a program which exits
normally and then do anything ("ls" or "pwd", for example) I get the
message

	ld.so: map heap error (22) for /dev/zero

and I have to kill the process since that's all it will do.

We're talking 4.0.1 on a Sun-4.  Any ideas?

						Thanks, Scott
