Calling any 4.1C sites

I see from the news that there are a number of people with 4.1C
(we are one). Overall, it has been satisfactory, but there are
still some things which are worrying (like why some system-calls
sometimes fail for no reason or give no error when they plainly
didn't work).
So I am interested in hearing from other 4.1C sites of their
experiences and to swap bugs.
Incidentaly, at the European UNIX Systems User Group meeting at
Bonn in April, Sam Leffler said that there would be no virtual memory
file-mapping facilities in 4.2. Modifications to the system in
the this area are to be included in a later release, 4.3 (there are
problems with the 750 microcode on paging). 4.3 should be ready in
Jan 84 and should be 4.2 plus the mapping bits, but some architectures
may not be able to support these extensions.
Of course, that was April. Things may have changed.
