Problem Text * NOTE:- Also applies to XProto/StoreNamedColor 1 - 4. > All the testable purposes in these tests fail with the result > "child process was terminated by signal 10 (unknown signal)". > Only occurs on 64-bit machines. > This is actually a SIGBUS (signal 10) failure. Using dbx it is found that in the > function tester_rw(), a bus alignment error occurs when 'reply_pixel' is being > accessed. > eg > (dbx) step > signal BUS (invalid address alignment) in tester_rw
