Part 01 of the recently posted UUCP1.03D *sources* (Message-ID
<11272@xanth.cs.odu.edu>, Posting-Number: Volume 90, Issue 045)
contains an error on line 641.  

The string ``END_OF_FILE'' was accidentally appended to the line
``X1996'' because that line didn't end in a newline in the original
file.  Simply insert a newline before the ``END_OF_FILE'' before
unshar'ing (I suspect most people can figure this out themselves, but
I've already receive a few messages about it).

Needless to say, I'm going to modify my posting scripts to handle this...

Also, the file man/Standards (which was split in the sources posting)
may be corrupted at some sites because the file contained
carriage-returns to cause bold print on impact printers.  If in doubt,
use the copy from the binaries posting.  I don't know if any of the
other man files have this same problem.
