BUG:	When spectool (or tutorial) is run multiple times without
	resetting the executable with 'flpr', it is possible to get a
	segmentation violation before displaying any spectrum on the second
	or later executions in certain situations.  The main situation
	where this might occur is running spectool without a spectrum
	filename argument and then using the 'Read' panel to browze for a
	spectrum to display.  The specific case where this bug was found
	was modifying the file template.  This bug is caused by an
	uninitialized pointer.  Note that after you have displayed a
	spectrum any error (including a segmentation error) will not be due
	to this bug.  The workaround is simply to use flpr between
	executions.  If an error occurs use flpr and continue though
	occasionally the terminal window may become locked and the xgterm
	might need to be restarted.

STATUS:	Fixed in distributions after the date of this report.
