Sadly, yes.  It was like a roadside accident, I had to stop and watch.
What's more, I had to take pictures of the broken and bleeding bodies.

ftp://ftp.vix.com/pub/vixie/386bsd-mail.shar.gz (81K) has the public stuff.
I've excerpted it just now from among my larger collection of mostly private
e-mail from that icky time in BSD's history.
