Since the latest distribution I've received from comp.mail.maps, my attempts
to build a new pathalias database result in pathalias hanging forever while
taking up about 4.5 MEGS of core.

After spending far too much time chasing the problem, I've found that
keeping u.usa.nm.1 out of the input stream solves(?) the problem.  Apparently
something in the lastest bunch of maps (which do NOT include nm.1 so far)
is inconsistent with the Apr 25 version of u.usa.nm.1.

The inconsistency apparently involves some US site(s) only since using only
u.usa.* input makes the problem occur.

Anyone else having this problem or have I got something messed up here??

Thanks for your advice.
