Subj:	forwarded message from It's more fun to compute

I received this bug fix from Kenn Humborg...  I've applied it to BOSS 4.5.
The corrected version in BOSS 4.6 and is available via anonymous FTP from
lyman.pppl.gov:/pub/vax/boss.sh46[1-6].

As it is I've only got Version 4.2a of Boss so I'm don't know if this has been
fixed already.  In the call to PTD$CREATE it seems that the hangup AST routine
and paramter were not specified.  This stops Boss from realizing that top-level
processes have logged out, so even if you log out all processes Boss still
complains that you still have processes active when you exit (C-\ C-z).

The modified line is:

  check(PTD$CREATE(&tp_chn,0,&tw_chr,TTCHRLEN,&comp_srv,n,0,&inadr[0]));
                                              ^^^^^^^^^ ^

Hoping this is right,
