Save yourselves some grief (unless this is REALLY a pain for you to do) and
ftp the latest (5A(163)) version of kermit from watsun.cc.columbia.edu.  I
have successfully compiled it on my 1.0 cube.  Also, please note that the
makefile for 5A (and for 4E btw) both contain a next: clause in the makefile.
Thus, just "make next" don't "make bsd"

The files you will have to download are (minimum to build kermit):
  cku*.c cku*.h ckc*.h ckc*.c ckc*.w ckwart.c ckuker.mak

rename the ckuker.mak to Makefile (or makefile) when you get it to your next,
type "make next" and you're done.
