** SunOS/Solaris
*** Crashes when using Motif libraries, especially with multiple frames.
Crashes that produce C-backtraces like this:
#0 0xfec9a118 in _libc_kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.1
#1 0x77f48 in fatal_error_signal (sig=11)
at /codes/rpluim/xemacs-21.4/src/emacs.c:539
#2 <signal handler called>
#3 0xfee929f4 in XFindContext () from /usr/openwin/lib/libX11.so.4

#5 0xff297e54 in DisplayDestroy () from /usr/dt/lib/libXm.so.4
#6 0xfefbece0 in XtCallCallbackList () from /usr/openwin/lib/libXt.so.4

#9 0xfefc43b4 in XtDestroyWidget () from /usr/openwin/lib/libXt.so.4
#10 0x15cf9c in x_delete_device (d=0x523f00)
are caused by buggy Motif libraries. Installing the following patches
has been reported to solve the problem on Solaris 2.7:
107081-40 107656-07
For information (although they have not been confirmed to work), the
equivalent patches for Solaris 2.8 are:
108940-33 108652-25
