From:  Bob Brown <rlb at Purdue.ARPA>

4.2BSD htable expects that the cpu-type field in hosts.txt adhere to the
same rules of formation as host names.  In version 327 of the NIC host table,
the line

HOST : 192.5.23.16 : BRL-ZAP : 68000 : IOS : TCP,UDP :

has a cpu-type that does not adhere to the host name rules.  It's an easy
fix to htable.
