NetBSD panix5.panix.com 5.0_RC2 NetBSD 5.0_RC2 (PANIX-XEN3U-USER-pae) #1: Sat Feb 21 20:24:11 EST 2009  root@juggler.panix.com:/misc1/obj/misc2/devel/netbsd/5.0-RC2/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/PANIX-XEN3U-USER-pae i386
>Description:
The @ command ain't working.  Create a command, say:

  !!pwd

Copy that line into buffer 'a' with the command: "ayy

Try to execute it with the command: @a

And nothing happens.  In NetBSD 4.0, or in a normal copy of nvi-1.81.6,
it will execute the "pwd" command and put the results into the document.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
According to an unnamed NetBSD developer: Christos misread some parentheses when trying to fix an operator precedence warning, and changed the meaning of a complicated expression.
