	I did the same thing on my AT running Xenix, altho the only ~18 mhz
crystal I had was 18.45.  The AT would then hiccup every now and then.
XENIX would go into various panic halts.  I then stuck a 17.2573 (!!)
crystal in and everything is hunky dorry.  I guess when pushing the edge,
it sometimes crumbles..
