You can apply all of the PC 1.5.3 command patches. 
Almost all of the commands then work (including ls)

maybe you'll have to do a chmem to some larger value.
>(2) has anyone managed to use rz,sz? I will welcome any comments.
login on the remote system; start sz remote.
locally say "rz </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1"
>(3) nroff gets signal 11 and dumps core.
there is a call of time with argument 0 instead of (time_t *)0
will be fixed.

Even after the 1.5.3 upgrade?? If so I'd like to hear from you.

Can you be more specific? I always run update before cron but I never
saw a problem. Also try the 1.5.3 cron
