NetBSD rpi 10.0_BETA NetBSD 10.0_BETA (RPI2) #0: Sat Dec 24 09:27:51 UTC 2022  mkrepro@mkrepro.NetBSD.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/evbarm/compile/RPI2 evbarm

armv6be (big-endian)

>Description:
When I start yash, there is this error message, but the yash shell does start anyway:

  rpi$ yash
  yash: Cannot allocate memory
  The process was killed by SIGABRT: Abort trap 
  pi@rpi ~ $

If I press TAB, yash exits and writes a core dump:

  pi@rpi ~ $ yash: Cannot allocate memory
  [1]   Abort trap (core dumped) yash
  rpi$

If I don't press TAB the shell seems to work fine.

the first error happens only when there is no .yashrc file.

 Given that just updating is fixing things, I'd prefer that a lot. This
 will be hit in various places.
