There was nothing changed from the GNU distribution except:
1) The configure changes you note
2) Rework the makefiles to use the standard FreeBSD way of
building
I have been successfully using the FreeBSD 1.0.2 supplied Taylor-UUCP
since its inception; although I have noted problems with sio.
If you have a second, could you compare the GNU sources with the 1.0.2
sources to ensure no finger glitches got in when converting to FreeBSD
make setup...
