I have compiled the application program (tin) successfully on 386BSD machine.
Please check the Makefile and include file (tin.h) to match your system whether
or not.I changes Makefile like below:
      -DBSD -DNNTP_ABLE ..........
and I changed tin.h like below:
             EDITOR ... /usr/bin/vi
I trusted you are wrong at the files.Becasue I just changed the files and it
run well.
