Do you have any ideas what could be causing this? I've tried
everything I can think of: RTFM, downloading latest versions (but not
your test directory version; yet), browsing the source, etc. This is
on a Redhat 5.2 Intel box serving many macs, various OS versions
(primary testing system running MacOS 8.5.1).
