That all worked. Today when I run cvsup with the same supfile I used yesterday I get a core dump: # cvsup /root/current-supfile *** *** runtime error: *** Segmentation violation - possible attempt to dereference NIL *** Abort trap (core dumped) # cvsup /root/current-supfile If I truss it, with truss cvsup supfile, it works. # file cvsup.core cvsup.core: data # gdb cvsup.core GNU gdb 4.18 Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

"/usr/ports/lang/modula-3/cvsup.core": not in executable format: File format not recognized (I'm in that directory in order to rebuild cvsup for this build to get cvsup working again, but I can't compile modula-3...). Is there a new static binary to use? I thought the problem was my hostname, which was null, but I went ahead and set that (this is on a laptop doing DHCP).
