Hi -

I'm trying to run ETHEREAL v0.8.12 on Solaris Sparc 5.8.  I'm getting a Bus
Error.  TETHEREAL does work however.  Don't know if that helps....

I tried using one of the precompiled binaries - version 0.8.4.  Got a bus
error.  I grabbed the sources and compiled them using the latest version of
egcs, and libpcap v4.3.   Same problem....

Here's the output from 'gdb':
