	or you can get the latest version of xbin with FTP or by
	convincing the moderator of comp.binaried.mac to repost;
	we discussed and fixed that problem in xbin quite a few
	months ago ...

	compile and install xbin in your own directory if your
	system critter doesn't want to install it ...

	I'll also Email the C-source code on request ... (if I'll
	get too many requests I'll request Roger to repost xbin myself)

	...now I didn't verify that this was really the answer to the
	original question myself ....and I had no problem xbinning the
	file myself....
