+[Please use the PRF form below to submit bug reports, problem
+ reports, etc., to the CIAO developers and interested users.
+ Send to ciao-users@cs.wustl.edu.  If you are using OCI or PrismTech's
+ versions of CIAO do not send bugs to this mailing list, but
+ instead contact those companies for support.  Please also send your
+ PRF as plain ASCII text, _not_ uuencoded or as an attachment.
+
+ We prefer that all bug reports be submitted through our bug tracking
+ system.  See $ACE_ROOT/docs/usage-bugzilla.html for more information
+ about how to do this.  If you are unsure as to whether your problem
+ is a real bug or not then please submit your question to the mailing
+ list using the following form.  Not using the problem report form
+ will make it harder or impossible to identify the problem, and in
+ many cases we will be unable to help at all.  Also please try to
+ browse bugzilla and the ChangeLog files to find out if your problem
+ has been solved in a more recent version of CIAO.
+
+ To ensure that you see responses, please do one of the following:
+
+    1) Subscribe to the ciao-users mail list, by sending email with
+       contents "subscribe ciao-users" to majordomo@cs.wustl.edu.
+
+    2) Or, monitor the comp.soft-sys.ace newsgroup for responses.
+
+ Replace/remove all the explanatory text in brackets before mailing.
+
+ Please send this form as ASCII text only.  Do _not_ send it as an
+ attachment, or as tar'ed, compressed and/or uuencoded text.  And
+ limit line lengths to less than 80 characters.
+
+ PLEASE make your Subject: line as descriptive as possible.
+ Subjects like "CIAO bug" or "bug report" are not helpful!
+ Also, do _not_ include the word "help" in the Subject!]
+
+ When including your config.h and platform_macros.GNU files as requested
+ below, only include the contents if you use the recommended method of
+ including the platform-specific file in your file. If you use a link
+ to the platform-specific file, simply state which one - DO NOT include
+ an entire platform-specific configuration file in the form.
