In sending a broadcast I do something like:

      fbcast_l("m",gaddr,RECEIVE,message_ptr,nwant,&rval);

but when I tried to change the options to "mx" in order to exclude the
sender I die in:

#0  0x0 in _DYNAMIC ()
#1  0x192d60 in BCAST ()
#2  0x1922b4 in do_bcast ()
#3  0x191e48 in fbcast_l ()

In reading the manual (p. 171) I got the impression I could mix these
options. What is the proper format for a message that takes a message
pointer and excludes the sender ?

Thanks, Paul.
