Since this is a form letter that Pierre sends out, let me update this by
stating that the bug mentioned above is indeed fixed in SunOS 3.[23] for
68010 architecture.  Also, there are bug fixes and improvements to the
Pascal compiler in release 3.3, so those out there with Suns considering
buying the Unix TeX tape might think about waiting until you are running
SunOS 3.3 [or 3.4, which is due out Real Soon Now] before trying to build
it.  It would probably make life considerably easier.
