It seems that my news program insists on inserting two blank lines after
any files included in a posting.  The result of this is that all the 
GNU BISON parts I sent out have two extra lines at the end.  So, before
you "cat" the files together, delete the two blank lines at the end of
each part of the uuencoded file.  Then, "cat"ing them together, and
uudecoding DOES give a correct result (I tested this by receiving the
postings from the forum, doing this, and testing the resulting ZIP...
everything was OK then).
    Also, the ZIP was made with PKZIP V1.01, so earlier versions will
not work.
    Hope that helps!
