I've ftp'd the 1.04 and 1.05 dist and the diffs between the two.
I'll make a pass through comparing the 1.04 dist to the NetBSD tree.
If 1.05 is integrated, it's probably easiest to evaluate and apply the
1.04->1.04(NetBSD) fixes to the 1.05 tree, as the diffs from 04 to 05
are significant:

This matters to me since my mail feed is switching to UUCP this weekend
and from looking things over, I may need some 1.05 bits to make it work the
way I want.
