DDD 3.3.1 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) gets `BadWindow' error

[Yingping Lu]

Hello,

When I was using ddd to debug xfs_repair code, I got "BadWindow" error, 
and ddd  exited just after I launched it. I already used "-g" in 
building xfs_repair to generate symbol info. The platform is Linux 
x86_64. Any idea how to get around?

Thanks,

Yingping
