SVR2 uucp update to >6 char hostnames desired

[Douglas Robinson]

A source site that we desire to talk to is running System-V (R2) whose
uucp has a hostname limit of 6 characters.  Given that our sitename is 7
characters long, we have been unable to talk to them.  Does anyone have
a set of context diffs that you could mail to me (I'll forward to them)
to get SVR2 to talk to hostnames of up to 8 characters (System-V allows
up to 8 character hostnames - it's uucp thats brain damaged!)?

Note that Honey-Danber is NOT a useful suggestion due to its cost.

If no response is heard, then I'll just have to change our sitename :-(

Thanks in advance.
