This might actually break on other versions, I don't know.


Given this snippet of (incorrect) config file:


default csrvcs5 { type exec; host aconsole.com; # initcmd '/opt/test/etc/shiva-chat'; # exec /usr/bin/telnet -E H P; execsubst H=hs,P=Pd; portbase 3000; portinc 1; }

conserver crashes with a bus error
