Description JP Rosevear 2005-11-27 20:20:56 UTC

top aborts in glibc if the terminal (xterm or gnome-terminal) line height is shorter than 5.  My valgrinding showed that a memcpy in top.c:show_special called from line 2884 top.c is the culprit.

Able to reproduct on 10.0plus as well.

I should note this is an SMP opteron (installed as 32bit though), but the 10.0plus machine was a regular x86 machine.
