Help!  I'm running BSDI 2.0, and for some wierd reason UUCP uploads
are giving me 'error: rnews cannot setgid 6 - operation not
permitted'.  The UUCP/NEWS is totally broken as shipping off the ROM,
but I've got most of it working.  In order to get this far I had to
copy /usr/contrib/lib/news/rnews to /usr/contrib/bin, and set the
protections, but it still wont run.
