Michael, just because the Free Software Foundation doesn't support
porting to Apple platforms does not mean people shouldn't do it!

Like many of the more useful GNU tools, GNU uucp has been ported to
the mac already. Copies of the binhexed binary and source can be
found on Sumex (for those of you with FTP capabilities) or
available via mail based servers from Rice (listserv@ricevm1.rice.edu)
or UC Irvine (archive-server@ics.uci.edu).
