In my experience, requiring subscription cuts down greatly on the amount of
noise and essentially blocks all (or 99% of) spam from mailing lists.

i don't think it has anything directly to do with it, either. i suspect
it's just bad timing or possibly memory corruption caused by stack abuse at
some other point. That said, i think that any such bug is probably
compiler-specific, since none of us are seeing it on non-sparc platforms. i
will run push/pull through valgrind this evening, but i don't expect to see
anything more drastic than a couple of "standard" leaks we have in (e.g.)
the argument/parameter handling.

correct: 512 is the return value of the write() call, == the number of
bytes it was asked to write (512).
