Hi! =)

This is a neat trick I discovered using 1.3.18 and libc 5.2.6.

After having installed libc 5.2.6 and loaded a few programs into memory
linked to it, try to untar the libc bins again on top of the ones you just
installed.

I tried this about three times.. locked my machine up solidly every single
time. It required a hardware reset.

Perhaps this has something to do with the new mmmap stuff? What
happens when you map a file and then something comes along and
changes its contents?

Have fun,
Christopher
