System type, version: (VS2) Version 6.0C
System name: binkley
What's wrong:
If you try to run a VAX executable on an RT from the command line, you
get a sensible error:
foo: not an RT executable
However, if you place the command "foo" on a line in a file and then
source that file, you get:
foo: foo: cannot open
What to do to duplicate the problem:
Attach 18.03 on an RT, then type "source /mit/18.03/.attachrc" to see
the error. Type "/mit/18.03/1803/1803" to see what should happen.
What should have happened:
When you source a file, it should report an error due to a bad
executable properly.
