Today I managed to reinstall snorklewacker with NetBSD-1.3 and
slapped Athena-like stuff onto it. I noticed a few problems we're
going to want to work around. The one that has leapt out at me so far
is that there's at least one shared library with a new major version
for which we have programs linked against an old major version. That
library is libutil, which has version 4.2 in NetBSD-1.3, but had
version 3.2 in 1.2. Any program that linked against it (so far I've
found ssh and friends in the crypto locker, and telent on the system
packs (though that's not a real issue)) won't run. I suspect we want
to augment /usr/lib on our system packs with libutil.so.3.2, but I'll
think about it more when I've slept some.
