I think that the graphics code is now pretty robust but that's partly
because we've hidden away a way to make LyX crash.
If the executable bit on a shell script is not set and if it is invoked as
script.sh ...
rather than as
sh script.sh
then the execvp call hidden away inside the forkedcall class barfs:
execvp of
"/usr/users/aleem/OTHERS_CODE/lyx/devel/lib/scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.sh
/usr/
users/aleem/.lyx-1.3.0cvs/tmp/lyx_tmpdir2204aaceCa/lyx_tmpbuf0/0lyxpreview.tex

sometimes the thing that dies is LyX, sometimes its just the daughter process
(as in this case). Can we do anything to make things more robust?
