    I don't know if this is just a cheap workaround or a real solution but
    I've discovered that adding LANG=en_US to .bash_profile stops the
    crashing. It appears that even though en_US is my default it is
    automatically set to en_US.UTF-8 when loading an xterm. I guess I'll put
    off determining why until some future time unless you have any ideas?

    In any case thanks for the assist.

    Regards,

    Terry.
