	Several people said this... so I supped current sources
(yesterday's) and compiled a new kernel.  I no longer get messages in
the syslog about silo overflows, but from my taylor UUCP logfile:

uucico elastic - (1997-04-09 06:49:31.68 258) Handshake successful (protocol 'g' sending packet/window 512/3 receiving 64/7)

uuxqt elastic news (1997-04-09 09:51:00.09 24201) Executing X.elasticdaa0e (rnews)

	So... I'm loosing bits somewhere.
