lynx-dev lynx dev.10 core dump

[Larry W. Virden]

Well, I ran into a core dump this morning.  I don't know that I can 
recreate it, but I can describe it.

I started with
lynx www.ncsa.edu
I did a search on macintosh and telnet.  I noticed some --> on the page,
so I did a ' to switch comment handling.  I looked at a few pages,
trying to see what the last version of ncsa telnet for Mac was.

I then decided that I was needing a newer version.  So I did a 
g www.altavista.com

What I next saw was interesting.  First I saw the intro altavista screen.
Then lynx informed me that it was coredumping.

Here's the stack trace the core shows:
program terminated by signal ABRT (Abort)
Current function is FatalProblem
 3286           abort();
