	We have problems running "refer" and "lookbib" on our new Sparcstations
	(SunOS 4.0.3).  We consistently get memory faults.

These programs have several bugs under SunOS 4.0*:

	bug#1009231 refer dumps core if file ends with .]
	bug#1014477 lookbib broken under 4.0
	so#359103 lookbib: no output if indxbib isn't run; Sparcs dump core if
		indxbib _is_ run

Patches are available from Sun software support.  Rumor has it that the
bugs are fixed in SunOS 4.1.
