FYI.. the above is a NeXT 3.3 issue..not an HPPA issue.=)  (It was pointed
out to me it sounds like an HPPA problem..sorry =)

It's not actually 'xauth' that fails (well, it does, but it's not what
is in question =).. it's the line afterwards. When it's attempting to
detect the mailbox locations from the $MAIL variable (Which does not get
set by default under NeXT).


Provide conf_mail_dir=  for platforms that don't have detectable
locations. 

Matthew C. Weigel has a dirname.c from the FreeBSD group that works under
NeXT.  I'm not sure if it's really required.  But Damien if you think
it's the best route ask him for a copy.
