I've noticed that calling ping with specially crafted IP addresses
tends to lead to problems:
ping 192.168.000<...more zeros here...>000.1
With increasing '0' characters, random ascii characters begin to get
included in the output.
After about 8k of zeros, I get segmentation faults (WinXPh)

With the 20050705 snapshot, the command "mount -c /" fails. Works fine

I've spent most of saturday trying to get exim and imap3d to work.
By inserting a bunch of echo "some thing" statements in the exim-conf
file, I figured out where the config script was bombing on me. So
