>Description:

/usr/bin/more coredumps (with various signals, obviously SIGBUS
most of the time) if it receives two signals in short succession.
This could be reproduced on several 2.2.x machines.


>How-To-Repeat:

At a shell prompt, type:
   /usr/bin/more /some/large/file
In another shell, find out the PID of that more and then type:
   kill -TSTP <PID>; kill -TSTP <PID>
This has to be on one line, so the two signals are sent in
short succession.
