When I use xwebster, it always dies with "peristeromorph" and I
get:

The webster server appears to be broken.
Please try again, and if it doesn't work,
  send mail to bug-sipb to let the SIPB know.

Well, here is your mail.  [Reply to creubank@amt, not creubank@athena since
I am in the process of getting my mail at athena forwarded.]  By the way, I
just wanted to see if your dictionary contains such an obscure word. 
"Peristeromorph" means "have the shape of a pigeon".  As in "My!  What a 
peristeromorphic hat you have there!"  Actually, I think its use is quite
limited.  Still, xwebster shouldn't die.................
