Microport 386 install problems

Has anybody come up with the problem of 

	PANIC: splint: logic error in misc.s

when installing the build floppy (the first one). This happens
on several of the 20MHz 386 (Everex, AST, and local clone). I
tried running them at 16 MHZ, and had the same problem. Microport
tech support is not much help. They asked me about my EGA card, and
told me that this was the problem. However I pointed out to them
that the EGA card must be OK if I can get PANIC messages, and
register dumps to my screen. 

This seems to be something basic, and it is not a bad floppy,
as it worked on a wyse 16 MHZ system. I am getting ready to
return the micro-port unix.

Any advice is appreceated.

Thanks in advance.
