command:

dialog4ports --port sysutils/pcpustat --option name=description="long 
description" --option second="second option"

dies if you press down arrow then up arrow, or tab twice.

In readying this to send to you, I tried shortening the descriptions, and
that makes it work.  Must be a buffer overrun somewhere, or unexpected
input.

I tried this in the source directory itself, which contains:

Makefile
dialog4ports
dialog4ports.c
dialog4ports.core
dialog4ports.h
nolicence.sh
withlicence.sh

I can send you the core file if that would be helpful (4MB).
