[net.sources.bugs] Patch1.3

espo@bpa.UUCP (Bob Esposito) (05/30/85)

	I've been having a problem installing the recent patches to RN
	via the patch program.

	When using the suggested procedure, patch <rnfix_file, I always
	get an assertion error for hunk at line 294.

	Some research has shown that if the Prereq line is removed from
	the patchlevel patch, things are OK, except when there's another
	patch.


	I really don't want to hack at the code, but I will if there's
	no resolve to my problem.  I'm running SYS V, on a PDP 11/70


	Thanks in advance,

	Bob Esposito -- ...bpa!espo

I don't know about system V but I was given the following corrections to 
patch for a V7 system by Adrian Pell (adrian@reading.UUCP).

In the typedefs section about line 105 LINENUM should be an int for
pdp11's.

typedef char bool;
#ifdef pdp11
typedef int LINENUM;			/* must be signed */
#else
typedef long LINENUM;			/* must be signed */
#endif



For V7 compilers you also need to add
	-Dvoid=int -i
in the cc call in the makefile and change all occurences of 
this_line_is_command
to
tli__command
