Following our department's upgrade from NeXT 2.1 to 3.0, several 
users started noticing the following strange behavior with 
FrameMaker (version 3.0.1).  Occasionally, in the document window
of an open document, the background of a page turns black.  Using
redisplay (control-L) does not clear the problem, but paging forward
and back does.  The person who runs into this problem the most says
she leaves FrameMaker documents open overnight, and it is documents
that are left idle that are subject to this problem.  At the same
time there are console messages such as:

 DPS client library error: PostScript program error, DPSContext 1f8258
 Dec 22 09:14:17 ninja FrameMaker[175]: %%[ Error: nocurrentpoint; 
 OffendingCommand: xshow ]%%

Anybody have any idea about what is going on?  The machines in question
are NetBoot clients, so the filesystems are used via NFS.
