Dave,

I've just fixed this.  Somehow it slipped through the cracks.  When
this was changed in gold, it was made the default, and the old headers
(still needed for older pools) were maintained in a special directory.
Somehow we goofed and it was the case that in ptos, the older special
directory was in use:

    ptos-505 % sbinfo BCSHEADERS
    /usr/sde/osf1/headers.v20

I've fixed this so the correct directory's in use now:

    ptos-506 % sbinfo BCSHEADERS
    /usr/sde/osf1/headers

Do we need to try to find new files which may have incorrect syntax now?
It should be easy enough with our SNAPSHOT files to find new .c files.

Thanks for catching this.  It was correct in goldos.  John F & I just
looked and it also needs fixing in goldmin.  We'll check HW3 too...

I just used bcreate in my ptos backed sandbox to make several .c files and they 
were all created with headers containing:

#ifndef lint
static char *rcsid = "@(#)$RCSfile$ $Revision$ (DEC) $Date$";
#endif

This was supposed to have been changed some time ago.  Headers for C sources 
should instead be using:

#pragma ident "@(#)$RCSfile$ $Revision$ (DEC) $Date$"

This needs to be fixed as the extensive work done to reduce memory utilitization 
is undone a little every time someone does a bcreate with this bogus header.
