One of our professors just had OpenWindows die on him without warning,
with the following message printed on the console:

	XNeWS: Internal error detected (SIGBUS)
	       Report this problem to a knowledgeable person.

I presume this is YAOWB (Yet Another OpenWin Bug).  Is there a known
fix for it (aside from using X -- we run some stuff that requires
OpenWin :-( )?

Two more observations:
(1)  I have never seen this error before, so it seems to be pretty rare.
(2)  From what I have been able to gather, the user wasn't doing anything
     unusual, just working inside a SunPC window when everything crashed
     on him.
