	 The finger 2 @
 host bug seems to be more widespread
	 than thought.  Every host I tried it on at
	 UCLA from Suns, to Next machines, to RTs, to HPs exhibited
	 the strange behavior.  It is not an NIS problem because
	 not all the hosts are running NIS.

I took a quick glance at the Sun source code today.  It's definitely
trying to do *something* with numeric arguments, but at a quick look,
I sure couldn't tell what it was....
