Not only is it there, it's a know bug and there is already a patch
tape for it.  I got the tape over a month ago.  Why you cannot
reproduce it is that he left out one key item, he's running Sys5.3
and you are running BSD.  It's only the Sys5.3 cpp thats broke.

Call the hotline and ask for the patch tape for the Sys 5.3 cpp.
I got mine the next day.
