BUG:	Using the 'd' or ':d' keystroke commands will cause a segmentation
	violation on Solaris systems and may cause problems on other systems,
	although apparently not on SunOS systems. The problem was caused
	by a subroutine which was being called with an unused output variable 
	set to a constant

STATUS:	Fixed for the next release of iraf. One possible workaround is to
	fit the psf with the 'f' keystroke command and then use the 's'
	or ':s' keystroke command to examine and optinally delete the star.

BUG:	The 'h' key method for measuring equivalent widths will produce
	an arithmetic exception (such as divide by zero) when the pixel
	coordinate becomes large (say > 4000).  The exact error and limit
	value depends on the host system.  The workaround is to extract the
	desired piece of the spectrum into a shorter piece.  If you know
	the pixel coordinates you could use IMCOPY with an image section.
	If you know the wavelength region then use SCOPY.

	    on> imcopy longspec[5210:5310] temp
		or
	    on> scopy longspec temp w1=6140 w2=6143 rebin-

	    on> splot temp
	    

	Alternatively one can use one of the other methods for measuring
	equivalent widths such as 'e', 'k', or 'd'.

STATUS:	The algorithm is revised in the next release.
