I should have posted a reply earlier.

As I understand, a half dozen or so "erroneous tapes" were mailed out
with a cleverer-but-defective routine to save some time calling a clock
routine.  I received almost instant help by calling Berkeley and had 
the SMU machine fixed post haste by changing less than a dozen lines of
code.

Since those fixes (which almost everyone else received in their standard
distribution), the SMU machine has neither crashed nor hung a DZ.

Good stuff, that BSD distribution.
