Well, the Linux version of netscape 4.5 is working now that the
error changes have taken hold.  However, there is a subtle weirdness
that I don't quite grok.

: sean.ebone.net ; cd /usr/src
: sean.ebone.net ; ktrace -f /usr/tmp/ktrace.out netscape
bus error
: sean.ebone.net ; mv /usr/tmp/ktrace.out /usr/tmp/ktrace.out-
: sean.ebone.net ; cd /var/tmp
: sean.ebone.net ; ktrace -f /usr/tmp/ktrace.out netscape

the latter invocation works normally.

This happens without running ktrace, too.

The difference: I have write access in /var/tmp.

Below is the tail of the kdump -e linux -f /usr/tmp/ktrace.out-.

Is there a way around this other than making sure of the
permissions of the directory one invokes netscape in?

	Sean.
