Segmentation fault in UUCICO
I have discovered that whenever sending a large number of files via
uucp, segmentation faults crop up.  It is very consistent.  I have
looked at diagnotic output level 4; right after the 40th printing of
"*** TOP ***" and the "role=1" messages in cntrl.c, the fault occurs.
Best I can tell it occurs somewhere in anlwrk.c since gtwvec() is
called right after "*** TOP ***" message is printed, and if gtwvec had
returned sucessfully, another debug message would have come out.

Anyone else see this error, or have a fix?  The version we run here is
basically the 4bsd distributed sources with a few local mods with
regard to times, etc. only.  I will continue to check, but would
appreciate any comments about this from others.
