You should be able to use the new one, and you should be asking this on -questions instead of -hackers. The answer is: look in the net2 code on gatekeeper.dec.com, or contact CSRG directly, after paying USL your license fee (I think it is now around US$250,000) for an old tape that they probably will refuse to sell you for legal reasons, or get them to rip out just the stdio (which they might do for a consulting fee). This is *probably* the same code in DEC Ultrix 4.x, so you may be able to get the code out of DEC (Compaq). Alternately, fix your code. 8-).
