Yeah, I ran into this too.  I reported the problem through internal DEC
channels.  Haven't heard back.

In the meantime, pick up & build the telnetd from
okeeffe.berkeley.edu:~ftp/pub/telnet.91.03.25.tar.Z
It should just be a small matter of configuring its Makefiles for
ULTRIX (there should be examples there already).
