First Gear Slip

Leif (1992 900S non-turbo 5-speed, 163,000 mi) recently has had a
problem with the tranny. It won't always stay in first gear.
Sometimes as I move out, the tranny drops out of first with a bang,
other times it just quietly slips out of gear.

The problem is occasional, perhaps one in ten times I put it in
first. It happens more often if I have my hand on the knob
anticipating the shift, and doesn't happen if I hold it in position
for first.

Worn linkage? Internal problem? Needs oil?
