more Ultrix 3.1C bugs...

1) /etc/lcp -p /dev/tty?? claims that tty's that are actually LAT
   tty's aren't "LAT Devices".  The -v function also fails with
   the same error making it impossible to set up additional LAT
   services from a 3.1C host.  "Normal" incoming LAT works find.

# /etc/lcp -p /dev/ttyL0
Ultrix LAT device: /dev/ttyL0 lcp: non LAT device

2) pstat -u doesn't work with the "address" display by ps -l to display
   the user area for a processes.  It's not obvious whether the number
   given by ps is bogus or pstat is confused.

   Depending on the address you either get garbage data or a can't read
   page from swap error message.

3) The -P option to getnode/remnode isn't documented.  This option (used
   by dsvconfig) apparently tells them to update the decnet permenant
   data base.  If you you remnode without the -P option to delete a node
   that was added by dsvconfig, the deleted node reappears after the
   first reboot.

4) The -b option to nfs_umount (used in /etc/rc.local) isn't documented.

I wonder if there is a 3.1C patch tape...
