I found the UN32131 Base CSD as you suggested.  PMX still hangs as soon
as I start an xterm, but now it doesn't crash the system ... an
improvement?  I had to kill PMX before other net communications would
work.  I ran netstat while PMX was hung and was reporting a growing
number of packet timeouts, a clue perhaps?

I also discovered that vt220 is broken.  It gets confussed about whether
or not it should be in intensified mode or not.  Fortunately, vt100 still
works.

I haven't tried NFS yet.
