I wasn't trying to keep it from guessing. The reason I mentioned guessing
is that I know that guessing isn't interruptable. I've always been able
to interrupt it in the very first stage before it begins guessing in
earnest, and now I don't see to be able to do so. I thought that maybe
some of the recent mods could have broken something. The only mod I see
that would seem vaguely related would be the 8/5 mods of the NSL_FORK
code, but I wouldn't think that would cause a problem... sigh...
