I don't know what's causing this problem, but it is incessantly annoying me.

I sup'd the full -current some time back to an ULTRIX machine, as it was 
the only one at the time I could use with the space to hold it and that 
would correctly compile and run sup. Now, I am trying to get the updated 
sources indicated in the source-changes list. When I run sup, it 
connects, transfers file lists, creates paths, but does not create the 
actual files. The complete directory tree for all the updated files is 
there, but not the files themselves.

Any clue as to what is causing this anomaly? As said before, it did
correctly retrieve the full sources when I had no
sup/current/(last,when).* files. It still does (checked with security
package). This is getting me almost to the point of hair-pulling...and I
don't feel like vacuuming today. :>
