Would rather run a hacked UNIX than GCOS/mod400 for example. I also have been battleing with word address machines for a few years now and can appreciate the problems. Maybe we should exchange software that has been hacked for word addressing machines; Ex: my 4bsd networking on a V7 filesystem. Anyway it would be nice to see word addressing bugs removed from the UNIX sources; it get a little booring macking the same hack in the kernel in iomove(), uiomove(), again and again. Will Bell and Berkely accept word-addressing fixes as worth-while. I believe all the newworking hackes were in mbuf.h and sys_inode.c
