[JDEV] Jserver Core Dump - redhat 5.2

[Eric Bowersox]

What's the executable that's running?  And what version of pth are you
using?

This sounds suspiciously like a problem I had with icq-transport where an
additional argument was not being passed to (a newer version of) pth in
certain event creation calls, that wound up causing an unexpected coredump.
However, we fixed that issue in jserver, icq-transport, aimtrans, and
yahootrans (or so I seem to recall), so this could be something else.
