Summary: This is an official patch for elm 2.3 system.  Please apply it.
Priority: MEDIUM

More of the release cleanup, more to come still...

Update install to update test prompts for alias current message
>From: Syd

Some wait system calls return with -1 and errno=4 (interrupted system call) when the
editor is invoked, suspended, and then resumed.  Loop until wait returns pid, or
returns -1 *if errno != EINTR*.  If wait returns -1 and errno = EINTR, we wait again.
Some flock()s refuse to exclusively lock a fd open for read-only access.
>From: [e-mail] (Paul Close)

Use a close-on-exec pipe to diagnose exec() failures.
>From: tct![e-mail] (Chip Salzenberg)

Allow use of submit with mmdf instead of sendmail stub
>From: martin <[e-mail]>

Fix:    From rn, say "| patch -p -N -d DIR", where DIR is your elm source
    directory.  Outside of rn, say "cd DIR; patch -p -N <thisarticle".
    If you don't have the patch program, apply the following by hand,
    or get patch (version 2.0, latest patchlevel).

    After patching:
        sh Configure -d
        make
        make install

    If patch indicates that patchlevel is the wrong version, you may need
    to apply one or more previous patches, or the patch may already
    have been applied.  See the patchlevel.h file to find out what has or
    has not been applied.  In any event, don't continue with the patch.

    If you are missing previous patches they can be obtained from our:
    archive server.
