Package: xwpe
Version: 1.5.22a-1
Severity: normal

When I run xwpe like this and select the option to display a man page from the
help menu.

$ MANPATH=`perl -e 'print "a" x 4000'` xwpe 
Xwpe: unexpected signal 11, exiting ...

Error-Exit!   Code: 1!
$ 

The bug is in we_fl_unix.c:

3539:   char            sustr[250], subpath[250], manpath[250];

3545:  manpath[0] = '\0';
3546:  if(getenv("MANPATH"))
3547:    strcpy(manpath, getenv("MANPATH"));
3548:  if(manpath[0] == '\0')
3549:    strcpy(manpath, 
"/usr/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/X11R6/man:/usr/local/man");
