I have 'rn' running under IBM XENIX V2 middle model with no apparent problems.
I gave it a 3000(16) byte stack.
The only things I had to do were to change all the VARARGS procedures to use
the VARARGS macro support as documented in the programmers guide.

I occasionaly get a message from rn saying 'out of memory - .newsrc restored'
but this causes no problems, I just re-run rn and continue where it left off.
