When rebuilding the packs I apparently ran into a bunch of cases of
problems with "strip" under IRIX 6.2. This affects:
* Many krb5 programs:
kdb5_util
kadmind
v5passwdd
kprop or kpropd
klist
sclient
Maybe one of rsh or rcp or rlogin
v4rcp
One of kshd and klogind
gss-server
telnet
* named-xfer (from BIND), but not named itself
* zaway and znol
* olc
Bob is theoretically looking at this, but couldn't reproduce the
problem so I don't know how far he can get just now. We could work
around this in the release by making sure we don't install and
stripped binaries on IRIX (mildly complicated, but not too difficult),
but obviously this is a serious OS bug we have to address anyway, so
I'm going to see how quickly we can solve it.
In the mean time, the Indy 8.2 packs are kind of debilitated. I'll
see about manually installing unstripped binaries for many of those
programs until we can address the bug.
