There was also a really irritating bug in the uucico shipped with
Microport System V/AT, which was that uucico dumped core if the calling
system's uucico was running with the debug flag!  (uucico -xn, for any
nonzero value of n).  We reported this to Microport and they said they
knew about it and had no intention of fixing it.  (This was long before
they went belly-up.)

I don't know if they shipped the same braindead uucico with their
386 product, but if they did, and that's the problem you're having,
try not specifying the -x option at the calling end.
