Actually... I think the bug is from calling ferror() after the pipe
to uuname has been closed.  Look in comp.os.linux.help (?) for a similar
discussion (search for smail or my name).  Basically, you want to edit
smail*/src/routers/uuname.c and find where it closes the pipe to
uuname.  Below that you will see a call to ferror().  Move the ferror()
code above the close code and everything starts working. (For me at least.)
