>Environment:

	FreeBSD-2.1.0

>Description:

	The uuencode(5) manual page says that the encoding of the final
	zero length line is an ASCI space.  This is incorrect; a single
	character ` is used.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Examine the ENC macro in /usr/src/usr.bin/uuencode/uuencode.c
	and read the manual page.

>Fix:
