We have a number of Ultrix 4.2 boxes (which for a number of reasons
we cannot easily upgrade) which have given us only one significant problem since we
installed them 4 years ago.
The problem is that if there is rapidly scrolling text in a dxterm and you
ctrl-c the operation that caused it (cat <some-file>) the system
panics with a nasty old error.

Is there any chance someone has a patch for Ultrix 4.2(A) so I don't
have to worry about an upgrade.
