System name:		hodge
Type and version:	KN01 7.1H
Display type:		PM-MONO

What were you trying to do?
	Run this command:

		lsdel -r /mit/jik/sipbsrc/decmips

What's wrong:
	It prints "lsdel: dirname: Not a directory" for every
	subdirectory of /mit/sipbsrc/decmips.  This also happens on
	the Vax, but does not happen on the RT, which makes me suspect
	that it is an inconsistency in the behavior of either the AFS
	kernel code or of pioctl().  I suspect that the RT is right
	and the Vax and DECstation are wrong, but I don't know for sure.

What should have happened:
	It should run successfully on the Vax and DECstation, just as
	it does on the RT.
