I don't really consider this my problem, but in an attempt to avoid
hurting users, I've applied the following patches.  I'm not at all
attached to these, if someone wants to go through and improve upon
them, they should feel free to do so (and feel free to not bother me
about it. :-)

Oh, I also installed a similar pathc to mit-install-current.html which
doesn't appear to be under RCS.

 Welcome to the NetBSD/Athena homepage. This page should answer
 questions you might have about the SIPB's port of Athena to the NetBSD
 operating system.
