I recently finished making sendmail 5.59 work here on altdorf, an
HP 9000/350 running HP-UX 6.01. At this point the only problem I seem
to have is with configuration freezing.

When I run sendmail -bz, sendmail silently exits. This makes it seem
like the freeze was successful, but when a later sendmail tries to read
the frozen configuration it says "No local mailer defined" and dies
with a segmentation error.

Has anybody else encountered this behavior? It is obviously not
critical; sendmail can function fine without a frozen .cf. But it
would be nice to have. I have no idea what the problem might be. I
don't know enough about the innards of a Bobcat.
