Subject: pine 4.0 & FreeBSD

There is a problem with the FreeBSD version of pico. ffclose causes the
errore message "Error preparing to close file: Invalid arguement" to be
displayed frequently.

I notice on usenet others are reporting the same problem under BSDi. 

One person has posted a patch for this but it seems to me that it is just
commenting out the if statement that generates the message which would not
seem to be a completely wise thing to do.

If no one has found a solution to this I guess the only thing to do is to
fall back to 3.96.

On another topic, the documentation should be beefed up a bit in regards
to proper access perms for the mail spool directory and specifically to
FreeBSD a note should be made about the libpico.so.1.3 file needing to be
moved inot a system lib directory.
