I fixed the problem with atrun under 3.5 by editing the bad fscanf format
strings in the binary with Gnu Emacs.  Find the format strings for
"owner", "jobname", "shell" and "notify by mail" and replace "%*" with
"^j^@" (newline, ctrl-@/ascii-nul).  This is based on the source fix by
Sven-Ove Westberg in Sun-Spots v7n64. atrun works fine for me now.
