	We have found an amazing feature of SCO-supplied HDB uucp:
	when uucico counts the transfer time for an empty file it
	dumps into core with "Division by zero". Enjoy!

	Generally I have no idea why it fails so often - I see
	it practically every day. Does anybody know is HDB sources
	available? If yes where can I obtain it to make it to work
	properly?
