VP/ix on ISC SysVr3.2 and "Assertion" problem
#57

For no apparent reason, when invoking VP/ix on my ISC SysVr3.2 system, I
now receive the following failure message:

 /usr2/marwood>vpix
 VP/ix Version 1.02.00 Copyright (c) 1987
 Phoenix Technologies Ltd and INTERACTIVE Systems Corp.
 All Rights Reserved
 Redirector Installed: Version 2.04
  
 ========== Welcome to MS-DOS running in the VP/ix Environment ==========
 
 @@@ Assertion failed: ' *pth != '.' ' file strings.c line 158
 VP/ix Z:\USR2\MARWOOD>quit
 @@@ Assertion failed: ' *p
 /usr2/marwood>

I have also received similar messages, but referring to a file
"utils.c" rather than "strings.c".

I am not aware that I have made any changes to cause this to happen,
though I have probably done something, yet undiscovered.  The only major
change that I have made to my system recently is to start using X11R3,
but the above problem occurs whether X is being used or not.

Any help would be appreciated.
