I have confirmed that the above setup will cause binkd for OS/2, compiled on
4/29/20, to crash upon requesting that it "dial out" to a scinet node.

OTOH, if I have the setup like this:

domain fidonet E:\\FIDO\\OUT 1
domain fsxnet E:\\FIDO\\OUT 21
domain scinet E:\\FIDO\\OUT 77
domain gtpower E:\\FIDO\\OUT 276
domain ilink E:\\FIDO\\OUT 454
domain micronet E:\\FIDO\\OUT 618

It not only does not crash upon the same request, but it finds the packets
that squish created, makes the callout, and exchanges mail with the scinet
system in question.  Also, the scinet packet that showed up in the display in
BinkleyTerm on the same machine has now disappeared.  So, they are both
pointing to the same directories.
