[Xastir] test

[William McKeehan]

I'm not at the VM right now, so I can't do much more debugging until later
this evening, but I can answer a few questions.

I believe that the program at PID 5561 (in the example) was Xastir.

Random...yes, but now it happens more often than not when I attempt to start
Xastir.

It happens during the startup of Xastir, typically before the Xastir window is
displayed, but not always that early (sometimes I see the Xastir window
flash).

I suspect this may have something to do with map display...I've been playing
with splitting the Tiger2008 data into smaller files (and have that part
complete). It was after this splitting that Xastir started acting up on me.
The resulting split multiples the number of files dramatically; I'd have to
check to see just how many files I have in this Tiger2008 folder.

I'll check /var/log/messages this evening and see if I can get any more
details there. If this is Xastir, is there a particular debug flag (i.e., -v
4095) that I could set on startup to provide relevant information?

Thanks!
