That's interesting, as far as it goes.  I have no NeXT to test on, so
it qualifies as a datam, but not much more.  You might try running some
of the test files by hand:

  [in cshish]
    cd t
    foreach file (*/*.t)
	$file
    end

A stack trace might also be enlightening.  Output from -D14 and such might
help.  If you mail to me, send config.sh.

I'll be at Usenix Wed .. Fri but I should still be able to read my mail.
I say I "should" be able to, but that doesn't mean I will be able to--our
PSI node in LA has been running 4 customers on 3 modems for close to a
month, and I'm getting awfully tired of seeing BUSY all day long.  Grrr.
They said there'd be a new modem a coupla weeks ago.  Grrr.
