Here Here for UNIX hacks for those old word address machines! Would
rather run a hacked UNIX than GCOS/mod400 for example.
I also have been battleing with word address machines for a few years
now and can appreciate the problems.
Maybe we should exchange software that has been hacked for
word addressing machines; Ex: my 4bsd networking on a V7 filesystem.
Anyway it would be nice to see word addressing bugs removed from
the UNIX sources; it get a little booring macking the same hack
in the kernel in iomove(), uiomove(), again and again.
Will Bell and Berkely accept word-addressing fixes as worth-while.
I believe all the newworking hackes were in mbuf.h and sys_inode.c
