I posted earlier in the week about a problem I was having getting
pvmd to start on a Solaris host.  Bob Manchek helped me figure out
what was going on ... (version 3.3.9).

My system does not have the compatibility package installed but pvm
was trying to invoke /usr/ucb/rsh rather that /usr/bin/rsh.
I was able to fix this by modifying the conf/SUN4SOL2.def file,
adding -DRSHCOMMAND=\"/usr/bin/rsh\" to the ARCHCFLAGS line.

Bob said he'll incorporate the fix in the next release.
