Uucico has an obscure and generally unused feature that permits splitting
the L.sys (connection setup specs) file into L.sys and L.sys.cr, with uucico
searching both and not caring which it finds the desired system in.  I've
now used this to bypass a minor annoyance:  a few sites to which we have
infrequent and undependable connections nevertheless show up in the site
lists produced by uuname(1).  They are now in L.sys.cr, which uuname does
not look at.
