[daip] Serious mnj bug!!

[Eric Greisen]

The following caused me to look at the mnj on ohsumi.  I found that
AFILE.FOR was not updated - but all LAST*DAT* files were updated to
20000713.  I cannot see why permission was denied - the file has only
444 on it but is owned by aipsmgr in the aipspgmr group, the directory
has write privilege only for aipsmgr.

The MNJ report says:

UPDCOPYSUB: Copy of /AIPS/31DEC99/APL/PGM/NOTST/AFILE.FOR
UPDCOPYSUB: to      ohsumi:/AIPS/31DEC99/APL/PGM/NOTST/AFILE.FOR
UPDCOPYSUB: failed after 5 attempts.

UPDCOPYSUB: Copied /AIPS/31DEC99/SYSTEM/UNIX/UPDATE/UPDCONFIG
UPDCOPYSUB: to     ohsumi:/AIPS/31DEC99/SYSTEM/UNIX/UPDATE/UPDCONFIG

The err file says
$ more UPD20000713.ERR                             
UPDCOPYSUB: Copy of /AIPS/31DEC99/APL/PGM/NOTST/AFILE.FOR
UPDCOPYSUB: to      ohsumi:/AIPS/31DEC99/APL/PGM/NOTST/AFILE.FOR
UPDCOPYSUB: failed after 5 attempts.
$ 

This makes me think that we cannot depend on any of the current
contents of the source code anywhere.  I would guess that the
"restoring" operation resets the error code so that the higher level
proc does not know that UPDCOPYSUB has failed.  I desperately need a
fix for this bug and a procedure that will let me run a global diff
across architectures here (with 3 copies of the text, one should be
ok).  The alternative is to delete all copies of 31DEC99 in the AOC
and reinstall from scratch.  I will begin that operation on Monday if
nothing has been done.  This will terminate all data reduction in the
aoc for days.
