[Well, as soon as I get it out the door, a bug shows up. If you are running
YP, you must install this. Others are strongly encouraged to do so. --sob]


Description:
	This is an official patch for rn 4.3. 

	Configure does not correctly detect if YP is working, when it 
	really is [at least as much as YP can work :-(].

	Comments or other fixes should be sent to rrn@lib.tmc.edu.

Fix:
	cd to your rn source directory and patch away
