Yep, I fixed that backaways.  I couldn't think of any problems with faking
having that software set installed, but wan't sure.  A very harried-sounding
person at CSC did tell me that it was okay to go ahead, so I did.

I'll have to peek at the release notes again.  This being my 6th Ultrix
machine, I may have zipped though the info too quickly.

As gossip goes, I'm told that there are two other schools trying to bring up
library systems (DYNIX) under pick (Universe from VMark) on DECstations/systems.
It looks promising and is a lot cheeper than the $0.5M+ that library hardware
normally goes for.
