We run BSD4.2 and the 4.3(?) version of uucp. 
I am having the following problem with uux:
I am trying to execute a command
uux "remote\!who > local\!usr/spool/uucp/name"
(The command "who" has been put in L.cmds for experimental purposes)
The command gets executed on remote; I get mail from uucp saying that it
worked. Then I go to the remote machine and find that uucico crashed
while trying to copy the file over. Reading the core with adb gives
bus error as the cause.
The output of the command has been put in D./D.xxxx  and C./C.xxxx also
looks OK.
I am stumped for an explanation!
Incidentally I changed the version of uucp recently; the previous
version had the same problem too. Everything else seems to work OK -eg
uucp (both ways) and so on.
