uh, i know this is hardly current "feature", but on my other
current machine, desktop at work, behind a firewall, cores cvsup
whenever i try to start it.

i get the following error:

moonshade# cvsup -P - /etc/internat.freebsd.org &
[1] 13986
moonshade# 

***
*** runtime error:
***    Segmentation violation - possible attempt to dereference NIL
***    pc = 0x82bac18 = Cat + 0x18 in ../src/text/Text.m3
***


[1]  + abort (core dumped)  cvsup -P - /etc/internat.freebsd.org
moonshade# 


anyone wish to see the core itself?

if i run it without the GUI it works like a charm, so it's the GUI
thing... 'make world' or remaking modula3&cvsup did not fix the problem.

since _all_ other x-programs i use work, i dont think it's alone a x
problem either, nor afterstep.

(i pkg_deleted before remaking)

machine is now current from few days ago.

as far as i remember, nothing have touched the mod3 or cvsup in past
few weeks.

the breakage appeared after 'make world' about 10 days ago.
