HEEEEELP !!!!

    Please could any kind uucp-guru out there enlighten me concerning the
following problem :

Configuration :
 o) 2 BULL Micral 75 (386/AT's) running Microport V/386 3.0e + DOS-Merge
 o) Intelliport AT8 (8 serial lines for terminals & printers)
 o) Connection via ttyM01 on both machines (works fine with kermit,cu,...)
 o) Speed 9600 Baud (direct connaction - should be modem in future)
 o) Systems/Devices/Permissions seem OK

Problem :
  When running  uucp  from either machine there happen strange things
  in about one of 5 to 10 cases.  A strange file named 'core' is left
  in '/usr/spool/uucp/bull2/'. It is 'not a core file' (/usr/bin/sdb)
  but 'english text'  ( /bin/file :-).  It seems to be a strange kind
  of binary (badly formed core dump of uucico ??) .  When using Uutry
  there is a message  'Uutry: XXXX abort - core dumped'  (  XXXX is a
  decimal  number (PID?) ).  This happens about once from five to ten
  'uucp's  (cannot find out when or caused by what) on both Machines.

Many thanx for any pointers
