sendmail 5.61 dumps core writing to SmtpOut

[Paul Traina]

I've got a MacII w/A/UX at work, and I'm having problems installing
sendmail 5.61 on it.

I'm running with the nameserver stuff turned on.  Everything work just
fine until final IPC delivery.  My sendmail opens a channel to the remote
system,  I see on the screen the system respond with its id, and when my
machine attempts to send the "HELO" message out, it dumps core in the
fprintf routine in the smtpmessage() routine (usersmtp line 501).

I've compiled it with -DVMUNIX, and added a few minor changes that were
needed to run under A/UX (changed load average handling, etc.).  I've tried
turning on all BSD compatibility flags using the unisoft setcompat() call,
and I've also turned on 4.2 signals manually with set42sig() under the
unisoft "dual-os" mode.

I'm stuck.  Is it a sendmail bug?  Is it an A/UX bug?  Has anyone compiled
any verson of sendmail to run under A/UX?  It looks like it's opening the
output stream correctly,  it obviously handled the input stream properly,
since I received the ident message from the remote system.

Any help (especially diffs from any version of sendmail to make it work
under A/UX) would be appreciated.

Thanks,
    Paul
