Not sure what to make of this. When trying to start jsshell, I get:

Assertion failure: (jsuword)&dummy2 < limitAddr, at jsapi.c:1791
ABORT instruction (core dumped)

This is a 64 bit debug build on HP-UX 11.00, built from
js-1.5-rc6a.tar.gz using the HP-UX C compiler

gdb provides this backtrace:

Is this a 64 bit problem or a HP-UX problem?
