Hello

I apologise in case this bug was already reported.

Setup:
HPUX 11i
gcc 3.3.3
Source snapshot from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-22.1.tar.gz
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/emacs-22.1 --with-x-toolkit=lucid

[src]$ ./emacs -nw
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[src]$ rm core
[src]$ gdb emacs

The problem appears to be in the uninitialized static pointers
default_orig_pair, default_set_foreground, default_set_background at the very
beginning of function  tty_default_color_capabilities() in term.c.

Indeed, simply initializing those to NULL values solves the core dump.
Here is the beginning of the fixed function:

static void
tty_default_color_capabilities (save)
     int save;
{
  static char
    *default_orig_pair = NULL,
    *default_set_foreground = NULL,
    *default_set_background = NULL;
....

Hope that helps
