| given that we are now on sun4x_56, it may be time to recompile?
I think that it is rather time to let workman die a horrible death,
since it's not particularly supported (either locally or in general),
and it's generally agreed xmcd is a better program.
Marleigh, are there any particular reasons why you'd prefer to use
workman over xmcd?
I've removed the arch/sun4x_56/bin/workman link, since it's better to
have no link than a totally broken one (after verifying the problem).

Yeah, it did. The Solaris operating system version was updated and the
interface to the volume manager software has changed significantly since
that version of workman was built.
