- YES! We had the same problem on xenitec. Seeing that the symbols started
- with an underscore, I guessed that UNIX was now compiled with an ANSI
- compliant C compiler, so symbols with an underscore are now strictly verboten.
- Try the scripts again without the underscore!

- BTW, apparently you can up the packet size to 7 without affecting Telebit's
- UUCP-g spoofing (it simply forces the window down to three when it steps in,
- but doesn't affect non-spoofed connections), but the same doesn't seem to be
- the case with packet size.
