There are indeed problems running uucico on the A3000 (UUCP 1.06D). I am
attempting to find the bug (several of you are helping me trace it,
thanks!). Not having an A3000 (yet) makes it difficult, though.
There are apparently two bugs. One Darrin Hyrup has traced to
somewhere around the close-serial-device/open-serial-device calls
used to terminate the call at the end. Another bug apparently occurs
just after receiving a file. I suspect both bugs may be a manifestation
of a memory mash somewhere.
In anycase, those of you with A3000's should avoid using UUCP 1.06D until
I can find the problem! Wish somebody had a debugger on his A3000 with
UUCP 1.06D setup, the uucico executable does have symbols in it.
The bugs *might* be due to a bug in DICE, but there is as much evidence
for as against that so at the moment it is pure conjecture. As far as
the CHK instruction goes, DICE never generates it. I've verified this
by using Lattice's OMD on all the uucico object files.
