Description Renaat Truijen 2002-11-09 19:18:30 UTC 
Opening a new gnome-terminal window.
Then typing in "man X".
System waits a certain time (hanging up the rest of the windows practically
for 100%) then exits with a fatal error, mentioning "segment fault"

When retrying, sometimes reproduce exact same error.
Other times the new window (after having retyped "man X") closes itself
without any message.

REMARK: I have the impression it happens often when I do as a FIRST command
in a new window, a "man ...." of something.
If I first type some other commands, the "man X" does work.

This most closely matches the description in bug #97817.  (Both were
Redhat 8.0 and used 'man' to get the crash).  RedHat 8.0 ships with
gnome-terminal v 2.0.1, so I'm suspect of the version number reported.

I'm going to mark this as a duplicate of bug #96392, since #97817 was
marked as a duplicate of it.  (Note that #96392 was marked as a
duplicate of #96439, but at least one person doesn't see why that was so).
