Thanks for pointing out the problem with gnuan.  The problem is very
easy to fix.  Just delete the line in gnuan.c that reads

#define BACKGROUND_ANALYSIS 0

or change it to

#undef BACKGROUND_ANALYSIS

This line is trying to disable an optional, undocumented configuration
of gnuan in which it silently takes its input and output from files
instead of prompting, but the code further below uses #ifdef, not #if.

	--Tim
p.s.  The mode isn't totally undocumented; it's described in the top
comment in gnuan.c, but not in the man page.
