[daip] KNTR/adverbs

	Hello,

I see there have been some updates to KNTR, and I am no longer able to get
the task to run. The error message isn't helpful in tracking the problem,
as it says only:

RGLINU> KNTR 1:
RGLINU> KNTR 1: Purports to die of UNNATURAL causes
RGLINU> KNTR 1: !!linux2     31DEC02 TST: Cpu=       0.0  Real=       0

I've attached a copy of my parameter file in case it's something
obvious I'm overlooking.

A second comment is that recently every time I start up AIPS and attempt
to run tasks such as IMAGR (or KNTR), I need to do a "RUN NEWPARMS" each
time to define missing adverbs (NCHAV, DOCOLOR).
