	uudecode output cannot be redirected.  It is convenient if it can,
	especially when the encoded file is a patch.
>How-To-Repeat:
	prepare an uuencodeed file, chdir to the place where you have no write
	permission, and uudecode the file.
>Fix:
	Apply the following patch.

	To set the output to stdout, use the '-p' option.
