     However, on a Sun 3 and Sun 4 [Chuck Forsberg's "undos"] gives a

If I remember correctly, "undos" incorrectly assumes that the mtime and
utime fields in the stat structure are contiguous in memory.  The fix
is easy if you look carefully at the code and/or get a core dump and
find the failing line.

Try my "flip" program (no email requests honored, look in
comp.sources.misc archives).  It converts between UNIX and MS-DOS
format.
