Just hit C-h d in a gnus article buffer, and got a core dump.
Anyone have any suggestions for how to debug this?

Here's the lisp and C backtraces, and Installation.el
Compiler is :
Reading specs from /opt/gnu/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1/2.8.1/specs
gcc version 2.8.1
Lisp backtrace follows:
skip-syntax-backward("_w")
# (unwind-protect ...)
# (unwind-protect ...)
# bind (stab)
byte-code("..." [syntax-table stab ((set-syntax-table stab))
set-syntax-table copy-syntax-table emacs-lisp-mode-syntax-table zerop
skip-syntax-backward "_w" ?w ?\_ forward-sexp -1 "`'" nil read obj fboundp] 4)
# (condition-case ... . ((error)))
function-at-point()
(let* ((fn ...) (val ...)) (list (if ... fn ...)))
)
call-interactively(describe-function)
# (condition-case ... . error)
# (catch top-level ...)
