We run UNIX System V release 2 version 2 on a VAX.
Cron is core dumping fairly regularly - 5 or 6 times
in the last 4 days.  The problems first started when
I added the `t' queue (for troff).  The `h' queue
(for high priority batch jobs) was added at the same
time.  /usr/lib/cron/queuedefs looks like this:

    a.2j14n
    b.3j14n90w
    t.2j13n90w
    h.1j0n90w

Before I dive in and start hacking, has anyone done
it before?

Phil.
