>Description:
Fresh install of FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE on a Dell Inspiron 5100 Laptop running XFree86 Version 4.3.0.  While in an xterm running 'bash version 2.05b.0(1)-release (i386-portbld-freebsd5.2)', pressing any of the F-keys ie. F1,F2,F3 etc. will get a bash core dump.  I have AGP disabled in the kernel which is probably playing a role.  Bash doesn't crash from the terminal if I do the same.  This bug doesn't affect /bin/sh under the same conditions.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run an xterm in XFree86 4.3.0.  Run a bash shell if you havn't already.  Press any of the F-keys and you'll get a bash.core dump.

You may need to disable AGP in the kernel to reproduce this bug.
>Fix:
Don't use Bash.  /bin/sh doesn't crash under the same conditions.
