The problem is somewhere between 1.3.66 and 1.3.70

I was also trying 1.3.74 on a Solaris 9 64 bit kernel (Sun Blade-1500)
compiling 1.3.70, and it got as far as trying to compile but.ss.c when
it looks like the cachemanager got lost. It could not find butc.h among
other errors. An ls -l showed some wrong files in some other directories
too.

This was using the production cell with my token, and the last thing
I wanted was to corrupt any of my files, so I shutdown the workstation.

Not sure if this is related to the 32 bit problem where all files
appeared to have zeros as data.

I rebuilt 1.3.74 without the --enable-largefile-fileserver  and the
32 bit cachemanager still shows files with all zeros.

Will look tomorrow.
