System V and news expire

[Mike Van Pelt]

Has anyone else seen a problem with compiling netnews under System V on a
Tahoe machine?  News seems to run pretty much OK, except expire has
serious problems:  The 'oldest message' is set equal to 'newest message'
in most news groups, but the actual article files in /usr/spool/news
are seldom if ever actually deleted.  I've been reduced to never running
expire, and running a brute-force "find older & rm" script instead.  

The make (patch level 14) gets the following diagnostics.
