I'm confused.  Do you mean that this is a patch for Chris's bug plus
one other minor thing or that there is one other minor patch to 1.3beta
beside this? (maybe the patch for builtin.c?)  In any case 1.3beta has
held up quite well to substantial abuse aside from the oddness with
SIGINT I noted earlier.

As a side note I've collected several hints for other SCO Unix users if
anyone is intrested, everything from patches to system include files to
small rc functions that improve speed substantially.  For example,

	fn true { return 0 }

is a big win vs. firing up the Bourne shell every time through a loop
with "while (true)".
