System: NetBSD clabsd.org 3.99.15 NetBSD 3.99.15 (CURRENT) #11: Fri Jan 13 22:16:21 CET 2006 claudio@clabsd.org:/usr/obj/sys/arch/i386/compile/CURRENT i386

Architecture: i386
Machine: i386
>Description:
	Executing last(1) with "-narg" (without space between '-n' and 'arg' 
	it crash (as follow) and create a core dump.

	$ last -n9 ; ls -l last.core
	Memory fault (core dumped) 
	-rw-------  1 claudio  users  74728 Jan 22 14:14 last.core

	Using the flash in the "correct" mode these are the results:

	$ last -n 9 

	wtmpx begins Tue Jan 17 2006 14:33:22

	Probably '-n' should be removed in favour of -NUMBER flag.


>How-To-Repeat:
        Run last with "-nflag" .
