I am getting the error 'Bad overview record' from TIN when I try and 
read some groups.  The .overview files have control-m's at the end of
some of the header entries... any ideas?  I am using BSDI/2.0 on a
Pentium 90.  

Thsi happened before, but I reinstalled from scratch and it stopped,
only to happen again.  Help would be appriciated in why the .overview
files are being corrupted.
