Thanks for help with finding the OS/2 archive site.
    ftp-os2 is, of course, hobbes after all.  The problem I was
experiencing was due to the fact that hobbes's ftp server sends a lot
of junk that DesqView/X's File Manager can't deal with.  FTP
Software's PC/TCP implementation of ftp works fine (except that you
can't pipe ASCII text into more, so I can't read the first 75% of the
directory listings---Grrrr; that's why I use File Manager in the first
place!)  So I've got Rommel's version now.
    I did get the port to work.  It was pretty trivial.  I haven't
done the regression testing.  You really need sh to do that using
"make test".  I'll let you know once I've done the tests.
