	I've personally seen the Apple folks at Connectathon (which is taking
place as I write this) working very hard on fixing this particular problem.
They have a simple test to reproduce it (which, by the way, causes failures
on other NFS ports as well).  This may be a reference port bug and not unique
to A/UX.  Please be patient with them.  They could simply start pointing the
finger at others, but they aren't doing that.  This attitude is worthy of our
respect.
