Just wondering if anyone has ever seen/can explain the following error
messages from epoch:

Holy PH Batman, the buffer's missing!
  ** Buffer type is 1

[1]  + IOT trap               epoch (core dumped)

This occured with Epoch 4.2 on a SPARC 2 runing SunOS 4.1.1. It
happened after I did
(kill-buffer (current-buffer)) (remove-screen)
which I have bound to a keypress on a screen which contained a buffer
also displayed in the other open screen. Epoch beeped a couple times,
gave the Batman error message, froze and then gave up the ghost with a
dump. I've been using this versio of epoch for a long time now and
this is the first time it's done anything this strange.

Curiously,
Alan.
