BUGS file

The BUGS file says that there are problems on ULTRIX with gcc. The problem is
really in nawk. As I remember, the latest BUGS file did not contain this.
The patch below also removes the multi-io bug/feature description since Zefram
fixed it by addin NO_MULTI_IOS option (which is not yet part of the baseline).
The MACHINES file contains the note about SunOS 4.1.3 (which is referenced
from the BUGS file).
Cheers,
Zoltan

- This is not exactly a bug, but an effect of the multiple IO

such patterns unchanged if they do not match regardless of the state of
the nonomatch and nullglob options.

- On ULTRIX 4.2, if NOTIFY is unset, zsh gets SEGV each time a background

On some systems nawk is broken and produces incorrect signames.h file.
This make the signals code unusable. This often happens on Ultrix, HP-UX,

+ Under 4.1.3 if yellow pages is used, username completion
+ may cause segmentation violaton. This is a bug in the
+ shared library not in zsh. Some libc.so.1.9.x has this
+ bug (it fails in yp_all). Statically linked binaries will
+ work if linked with libc.so.1.8.1 (which means that if
+ you can get a statically linked binary compiled under 4.1.2
+ that it will probably work).
+ An altermative but untested solution may be to undefine
+ HAVE_NIS in config.h. This may work, but the first username
+ completion will be _very_ solw (as slow as in tcsh).
