Perhaps you can send me a copy of your innd binary and a sample config?

I'm in the process of rebuilding everything from today's sources, so I'll 
let you know how that goes. My system is an '060, too, which I hope to 
FINALLY have set up locally so that I can test serial console and ite

When we can keep pkgsrc/sysutils/crashme from crashing 2.0, I'll be 
upgrading another machine, too.
