Epoch core dumped on me for the first time after a few days of use. I
am using Epoch 3.2.1 on a SPARCstation 1+ running SunOS 4.1.1. Here is
a stack trace:

(dbxtool) where
direct_output_for_insert(c = 65), line 590 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/dispepoch.c"
command_loop_1(), line 720 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/keyboard.c"
internal_condition_case(bfun = &command_loop_1() at 0x2c19c, handlers = 17844496, hfun = &cmd_error() at 0x2bb9c), line 1022 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/eval.c"
command_loop_2(), line 493 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/keyboard.c"
internal_catch(tag = 17844476, func = &command_loop_2() at 0x2bf90, arg = 17844236), line 814 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/eval.c"
command_loop(), line 475 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/keyboard.c"
Frecursive_edit(), line 362 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/keyboard.c"
main(argc = 1, argv = 0xf7fff07c, envp = 0xf7fff084), line 509 in "/home/local2/src/epoch/epoch-3.2/src/emacs.c"
(dbxtool) 

It is dieing on the line

	p->body[hpos] = c;

in the function direct_output_for_insert() in dispepoch.c. The file is
dated Oct. 24, 1990. I don't see any SCCS keywords. p is NULL. I can
send you a copy of the core dump if you wish. I am not on the epoch
mailing list so I won't see any mail you post so if you correspond
with me please send me e-mail. Thanks.
