1) Many thanks to Bill Westfield for the prompt, official word on the timing
   issue.

2) We still haven't resolved if this could result in the symptoms described
   earlier.  If, say, the Cabletron repeater was close to being out of
   spec but in the minus direction (-.01%) and the cisco's interface
   was out of spec in the plus direction (+.03%), could this potentially
   cause problems?  This would be probably be installation specific e.g. 
   segment length etc. would come into play, right?

I must say that the interface that we discovered to be out of spec has
caused us *no* problems whatsoever (its connected to a LAN of VAXs
that serves our whole campus so gets a lot of traffic).  My interest
in this has been driven entirely by my curiosity and not out of a need
to get anything "fixed."
