	This sounds like my mistake. I remember Brad telling me 
that he had fixed this, which means that I'm one version behind
in the distribution. My apologies to those folks who believed me
when I said that I had it together :-).

	Brad: could you please send your latest version of the 
code, or the diffs to what ever I have (my code includes select 
without the read bitmask stuff)

	To those folks waiting for me to mail the code:  I'll
mail it as soon as I get the latest version.

	To those folks with anonymous ftp access: I'll post
when my archive is up to date.
