Hi Stefan,

I've been slowly moving threads, and twice now so far (and reproducably) had elog crash.

In each case, it is trying to move a thread with more than 24 entries; it copies the first 24 entries, then
crashes with "Segmentation Fault".  It does not erase the lock file /var/run/elog.pid

I have got around this by manually copying the entries beyond no 24, then deleting the thread entry by entry.

I am aware that I have an old and limited machine (586, 256MB RAM, running Slack 10), and at first I was
"content" to write it off as that; but when it crashed for the second time at exactly the same entry (the
twenty-forth) even though the size of the entries would have been significantly different, I wondered if there
was some factor within  elog that could affect this.

I've not tried it with Copy to:, but imagine it will also be affected as the only difference with this and Move
to: is the deletion of the thread after all the entries had been copied.
