	It works with HDB present.  Since async_main doesn't depend on the
uucp tables/programs, it doesn't matter which you use.  async_main uses the
ph system's databases.  About the only thing that ph and uucp share are the
lockfiles, and HDB was configured to put them in the old location to
maintain compatability with the ph stuff.

	Don't worry - it works
