I'm wondering if anyone else has had the following problem:

If I try to get Tektronics terminal emulation on an xterm (either
by doing an xterm -t, or selecting Tektronics mode from the xterm
menu), I get an immediate segmentation fault and a core dump.

This is done on a sun 3/60, with display device /dev/cgfour0, and
running SunOS 4.0, and, by the way, using X11R4 (with the patches1
installed). I built X11R4 (and so, xterm as well) using gcc1.36,
with the fixes included for gcc1.36 building X11R4. Everything else 
seems to work fine with regards to xterm.

I have also built the same set of patched X11R4 files on our SPARCstation 1's
using just the standard cc compiler. Here, of course, I use display device
/dev/cgthree0, and run SunOS4.0.3c. On this platform, I have NO problems
with xterm and Tektronics mode.

Anty help would be appreciated.

Chris Hook.
