  Terminal handling bug?

Trying to get 3.50c to work on linux, Debian 3.0 systems (dual Pentium ||| 
systems). It actually works *great* (kudos to the devels)... except (you 
*did* expect an 'except' in a bug report, right?) when doing something like

rsh othermachine ~/pov/pov.sh

or

qsub ./pov.sh

where pov.sh is something akin to 

cd ~/pov
povray [params]

It dies with a Segmentation Fault.

Debian's packaged 3.0 does not have that problem. Redirecting output doesn't 
seem to help at all. The +GA command option is not helping either.

Can anyone confirm the bug on other linuxes? Provide a fix? (Setting TERM to 
something magic?)

Have fun,
Chris
