Elm/mailx/smail on SysV/AT

After reinstalling my System V/AT (version 2.4) and restoring Elm
and other stuff, I found I hadn't saved 'smail'.  After getting
the sources from an archive site and reinstalling 'smail' I find
that Elm (2.3d, patchlevel 6) crashes with segmentation violations
upon exiting after reading and deleting mail.  After that, even
/bin/mailx won't exit after reading/deleting mail, and I have to
use /bin/mail to clear it all up, then delete Elm's temporary
mailbox file.

NOthing has changed on this system--Elm was restored from a 
backup--except 'smail'.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.  Please reply via email, using the path below.  Recent
changes in my connections have probably rendered your pathalias
data out of date.
