ra seg fault on 1.8 beta code

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Peter,
   Found the problem.  Bad index number for array of strings.
The complete fix is a little more than this, but if you make
this patch, then things will work much better until I get
the next set of fixes ready.

Here's the diff.

./common/argus_util.c
384c384
<       processStr = process_state_strings[8];
---
>       processStr = process_state_strings[4];

Hope this helps and thanks!!!!

Carter

	Ra is seg faulting (probably because of bad fragmentation from where
it is) on an argus capture file. However gdb isn't thinking it wants to let
me look at any of the variables after the seg fault and the capture file is
a little large (138 megs uncompressed) to send to you. Can you suggest a way
to either extract a piece of the capture file or display something from the 
ra seg fault under gdb that would be useful to you?

	This is the beta 1.8 code that Carter sent me a month or so back (which
is working fine by the way) on a FreeBSD 3.1 box.
