After build of 19.15-b4 on hpux 9.03 I fired up w3 which promptly
hung.  After various iterations of killing off the running xemacs
and looking at the lisp stack trace, I first dropped back to xemacs -q
and then noticed that w3 was trying to load .mosaic-global-history
which had somehow grown to 250 lines (is this file ever trimmed?)
Nuking this allowed w3 to run * first time since 19.14.  However
The first link I followed caused it to go into a major memory 
consumption loop ending with a 75mb core dump and the message:

Pid 9066 was killed due to stack growth failure.
Possible causes: insufficient memory or swap space,
or stack size exceeded maxssiz.  

I'll try to reproduce this for a backtrace.

Other problem noted:  display of color gif on B/W monitor poor. Loses
most of the detail.  Netscape ok on this.
