Harlan and David,

  I stayed late last night looking at this some more, and determined
that this version of IRIX 6.2 apparently makes ALL syscalls
restart, just like the Sequent function at the bottom of ntpdate.c
talks about.

  When I comment out the "#ifdef Sequent" stuff and compile this 
function into ntpdate.c, then it works properly.

  David, are you seeing this on your IRIX 6.2 machines?  I've only
got a couple of 6.2 machines to test on here and they are both
IRIX64 6.2 (one R8000, one R10000).  Incidently, what patches do
you have on your Irix 6.2 machines?

Regards,
