Hi.

	I found an obtuse unpleasantness with vi that occurs only under
	unusual circumstances: If /lib/makekey and /usr/lib/makekey do
	not exist, or are inexecutable, and you try vi -x  or ex -x,
	vi will core dump.  I've fixed it for Dual, so if it sounds
	worth bothering over, write me and I'll send you the fix.
