The sources on sun-lamp are a moving target.  I might have been lucky that
all of the pieces were up to date when the tar file was created.

I am getting the 4/30 sources now and will try to compile it.

I have had some keyboard problems when the kernel drops into the debugger.
Sometimes, after several characters are entered, it hangs.  I haven't had
the problem at any other time.

I also have the console hang when uploading at 57600.  Telnet sessions
still work OK but the console is hung.
