The fix is a pipe handling correction posted (for 2.0.44) to the list by
Grant McDorman on or around Jan 21, 1997. I will off-list mail Lindner
the 2.0.44 patch I have in hand (you might have to massage it a bit for
2.0.46). Perhaps the adaptation to 2.0.46+ is in progress, anyway? I
hope this solves the problem he is having.
