	Since applying the patch, either an upload or download gives the
same results using Option 7 for external protocol.  I am using rz/sz for
the protocol, and had no problems before the patch.
	The transfer takes place, but the pcomm_input process hangs at the
end instead of passing control back.  The only recourse is to kill off the
pcomm process.  Prior to the kill, you see <defunct> where the pcomm_input
was.  Since rz/sz shows the characters moved, you see that 1024 chars of
1090 are moved when it hangs, but the whole file has been moved.
	Is this my problem, as I never saw Patch #6 ?  If so, can someone
send it ?
		Thanks much.
