5.41 crashes when creating gif's

[Helge Avlesen <avle@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Ferret team,
I get this error when I try to save some plot as a gif:

<avle@kongle> $	uname -a
SunOS kongle 5.8 Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-30

yes? SHADE/i=1:10/j=1:15 i+j     ! a sample plot
yes? FRAME/FILE=testsize.gif     ! Save the plot as a gif.

can I do something to make this work or is it just a bug in Ferret?
