No it's ok.
In case SF doesn't work an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is fine.
WRT SF I can state that I today got also lots of error messages when
trying to do some things there. Might be a temporary problem?!

Let's see:
I build and run the program with LessTif/CVS (i.e. more recent than the latest
official version 0.91.8) - the 2.0 version BTW - and XFree86 3.3.6 (on OS/2).
It runs fine here!
Hmmm - I confess that I'm a bit out of ideas. Our usual advice "get the latest
version" doesn't sound like a very promising way if you're already at
0.91.4 ...
Anyone else which can get this to crash??
