Comments on the preceeding bugs in System V

[Bruce Robertson]

Just a quick question... these are *serious* bugs in a *production* version
of System V.  These aren't bugs due to our port to the 68000.  Also, these
are NEW bugs; none of them existed in Release 1 of System V. I know that
AT&T does Beta testing.  All of the bugs showed up within days of installing
the new stdio package, and were tracked down and fixed within a couple of
weeks.  I don't understand how they could have been missed by a
thorough Beta test.  Does AT&T just ignore Beta test results, or is it
just very careless when choosing Beta sites?
