Well, if tn5250 horks at that line, some command is accepting either more
or less data than it used to. That hork happens when we aren't on a command
boundry (an EBCDIC 0x04 (ESC) character) after processing a command. It
could conceivably happen if the command-chain wasn't proceeded by an ESC
as well, but that doesn't make much sense.
I can't really believe IBM would release it in that state, as pretty much
every third-party emulator would hork. But... now we know that we're in
for some 5250 extensions (some are needed IMHO) next release ;)
P.S. Why don't I just change the assertion failed message to 'Emulator
horked at line...' ;-)
