Hi all,

I am running sybase 12.5 (32-bit) on AIX 5.2. Encountered the
following error about 3 times in a particular day. The error did not
happen in the past. Does anyone knows how to interpret the error
message? Is it some kind of memory allocation failure?

This is a segmentation fault, and is most likely caused by a bug
in ASE. Do you have the latest EBF? Sometimes these problems
get isolated & fixed -- look at the change log that accompanies
the EBF.
