   There doesn't seem to be an RT executable for gftopk, nor do there
   seem to be sources (except in web, with which I'm not dealing).  So
   the three new executables are /mit/sipb/{vax,rt}bin/mf and
   /mit/sipb/vaxbin/gftopk.

I hope this means you're planning on compiling and installing the RT
executable.  Also, please keep in mind that since you are doing this
work, when it is finished the sources should probably be in
/mit/sipbsrc/uus/src with links to them in vs2 and rtpc.  We should be
able to type "make install MACHINE=vax" or "make install MACHINE=rt"
and have all the binaries installed.  Including the undumping and all
that of latex (and tex -- does tex do any undumping?) if necessary.

I'm glad somebody besides me is doing the work :-)
