Hello, I have been trying to use pvmfcatchout on our SUnSparc with 3.3.0.

The call is:
...
...
	print *,' Switching on catchout'
	call pvmfcatchout( 1 )
...

And the run-time reply is:
...
...
 Switching on catchout *** Segmentation Violation = signal 11 code 3
Traceback has been recorded in file: 
         /home/derryck/pvm3/bin/SUN4/master.trace
Note: Line numbers for system and library calls may be incorrect 


and in the trace file (I see, bearing in mind the line numbers disclaimer!):

DOn't know if this is a red herring, but I need help fast. Thanks.
