Package: tcsh
Version: 6.14.00-7
Severity: important
tcsh crashes with an Arithmetic exception.
I build a debug version, and generated a core dump. Here is the relevant
part:
Program terminated with signal 8, Arithmetic exception.

2071 columns = TermH / maxwidth; /* PWP: terminal size change */
(gdb) bt

(gdb) print maxwidth
$1 = 0
(gdb) print TermH
$2 = 105
(gdb) print no_file_suffix
$9 = 1
Looking at the code for this, I can only imagine that somehow
NLSStringWidth is returning -1 - which actually does not make sense,
since maxwidth is set to 0 at the start of the function, and max should
never return lower then that.
Interestingly I have some files in the directory that contain non-ascii
characters. ls just prints them with ?
