ARC521 from uunet works fine *if* you go thru and remove the "b" option
characters from all the open() calls.  These are PC universe things to
specify "binary" files and are superfluous in the Unix environment.

Presumably PC based compilers either ignore or use these, but they seem
to confuse the RISC stdio routines a bit...
