[Tramp] Emacs crashed

[Martin Lüthi]

Symptoms:

Hi

Emacs crashed when using Tramp. I was using dired on a IBM AIX file
system. On Enter (looking at a file) Emacs was gone. Before I was
browsing through the filesystem, looking at several files.

I cannot reproduce that bug, but I once noticed similar behavior when
browsing a Sun file system (also not reproducible). Probably a memory
leak / buffer overflow problem?

Please advice how I can further investigate this bug (core dump?). 

Best, Martin
