No, just trying to load the first two default Pictures (Back and
Bluestone).  They never showed up on the root window, and a shortly
thereafter, Pager core dumped and left a 125Meg core file in my $HOME.
The stack trace isn't too useful for some reason though:

(gdb) where
#0  0xfafd184 in _sysmips ()
    at /xlv52/6.5.2f/work/irix/lib/libc/libc_n32_M4/sys/sysmips.s:16
