Digital UNIX 4.0C vs. 4.0B, Mathematica

As stated several times on this list: According to Digital DU 4.0C
(V4.0 564.32 alpha) is the same as DU 4.0B (V4.0 564 alpha) apart
from support for new hardware. This can't be so.

We use Mathematica quite a bit on our alphas. Unfortunately, this is
so far only version 2.2.4 since v. 3.0 is not yet available for DU.
Running the notebook (mathematica) on DU 4.0B gives, as far as I can
see, no more problems than running it on DU 3.2. On 4.0C, however,
when a command is ended with Shift+Return, a Local Interrupt dialog
box comes up. One can then terminate mathematica, but unfortunately
mathclient continues to run and has to be killed explicitly. Or,
one can choose to continue, but then the same box just comes up
again.

Does anybody know a solution? I'll ask Wolfram Research too, if need be.

Thanks,

Bjorn
