Where does one get a good nntp distribution from?  I've copied the rn
sources from uunet.uu.net, copied all of the patches from there, and
applied all of the patches.  I then copied the nntp.tar.Z file from
uunet.uu.net, uncompressed and extracted it, copied everything from
the rn directory into the nntp/rrn directory and ran the
MAKE_RRN_CANGES shell script (it runs patch) but not all of the
patches are correct; i.e. patch generates the following .rej files:

Configure.rej
Makefile.SH.rrn.rej
bits.c.rej
init.c.rej
ngdata.c.rej
rcstuff.c.rej

Should I just ignore this and blithely proceed?

And while I'm pointing out problems with distributions, one (or more)
of the patch files for rn generates a .rej file.
