I'm no expert I'm afraid, but I've done a little more investigating.
I grabbed the source and recompiled primenet.c with the _DEBUG option.
Of course it now works fine (except it insisted on sending off a load of
old results going back as far as May, which according to the logs had
definitely been reported before). So I've got the results updated, but
without finding the cause of the problem... Oh well, it now works, so I've
put v19 on all machines of mine (pity I had to kill off a process with over
100 days' CPU time to its credit (-: ).
One point - there seem to be inconsistencies in the case of some of the
source file names, which required either manual changing or use of
a FAT partition in order to get mprime to compile :-)
