:I have sendmail randomly coredumping on signal 11 on my freshly upgraded
:dragonfly 1.12 box. It looks like the bug Matt fixed, so I spent some
:time making sure that patch to main.c actually found it's way into this
:binary. (That doesn't mean I actually succeeded at this but it's quite
:likely I did.)
:
:#1  0x0809b565 in smtp (nullserver=0x0, d_flags=0x80fe18c, e=0x80fc740)
:    at /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/../../contrib/sendmail-8.14/sendmail/srvrsmtp
:.c:3789
:#2  0x080aff32 in main (argc=5, argv=<value optimized out>, envp=0xbfbff6f8) 
:at main.c:2641
:
:I've placed the corefile and the binary on leaf in my "crash" directory,
:for perusal of better eyes than mine. Thanks in advance.

    Hell.  It's the same bug, but in a different location.

    Fetch this patch file and apply it in /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail,
    then recompile sendmail.  Tell me if that fixes the problem.

    fetch http://apollo.backplane.com/DFlyMisc/sendmail02.patch
