There is a program called "ofiles", written a bunch of people over
the years, that I have ported to Ultrix 4.0 (MIPS and Vax).  Or,
at least I think my port works.  I haven't tested the "feature"
that allows you to run ofiles on a crash dump; I've only tried
it on a live system.  Anyway, the sources are available on
	gatekeeper.dec.com:pub/DEC/ofiles.tar.Z
