I would recommend seriously against you doing that. There were some
mistakes, but none were critical. Jik, you flamed about breaking "the
useful zpunt feature." Please type "where zpunt" and explain to me
again where Athena has a commitment to keep that. (I'm really playing
devil's advocate. I wouldn't think of intentionally removing such a
useful feature.)
The new code contains fixes, some of which I would call top priority.
One is the oft-complained about PGRP signal bug in zwgc. If you
insist on backing out to 6.4R, at least let me reinstall this change.
