    VERSION:
	    X11 release 1
    SYNOPSIS:
	    Font files (some) delivered with no data (ie. zero length)

    DESCRIPTION:
	    the font compiler barfed because it came upon a file that was
	    zero length.  the files were (from "tar tv" listing of tape):

    rwxrwxrwx 17754     0        0 Sep 14 19:15 1987 X.V11R1/fonts/bdf/vtsingle.bdf
    rwxrwxrwx 17754     0        0 Sep 14 19:15 1987 X.V11R1/fonts/bdf/vtbold.bdf
    rwxrwxrwx 17754     0        0 Sep 14 19:15 1987 X.V11R1/fonts/bdf/6x13.bdf

These should just be links:

	vtsingle -> 8x13
	vtbold -> 8x13bold
	6x13 -> fixed
