Building with latest svn revision 3577:

    * Builds without patches.
    * rexx can't start rxapi since it wants to write a pid to /var/run
          o rxapi has to be started sudo
    * if rxapi is not started, rexx ends up forking a rexx process and
      both hang
          o the second is left spinning at hi CPU usage when ^C out of
            the foreground
    * if rxapi is not started, rexx still hangs while trying to make
      rxapi call
          o but on ^C out the process goes away cleanly

So apparently what I've been ^C'ing out of is the fork that's trying to 
start rxapi. Then
I'm left with the caller spinning. Starting rxapi via sudo avoids that, 
and all I have is
the caller spinning which can be killed in the foreground.

None of this changes what you said, Rick, but it seemed interesting at 
05:30 sunday morn :)
