Comparing *.[ch] of
 - the rn kit (level 47) which has been posted to alt.sources a month ago
with
 - the rn level 40 distribution from our UUCP-backbone upgraded to
   level 47 by applying the official patches
results in two differences:

diff rn/help.c alt.sources/rn/help.c
1c1
< /* $Header: help.c,v 4.3.1.2 85/09/10 11:05:39 lwall Exp $

diff rn/ndir.c alt.sources/rn/ndir.c
1c1
< /* $Header: ndir.c,v 4.3.1.3 85/05/23 11:19:24 lwall Exp $

>  * Fixes provided by Wayne Davison <drivax!davison>
>  * 

These are just comments of course, but they may cause rejects when applying
upcoming patches. Should the alt.sources rn level 47 material be treated as
a refresh distribution where future patches will be based on?

Thanks for any comments, and best regards,
