UFS quotas at V5.0 problem

It seems to me that disk quotas do not work on UFS filesystems at
Tru64 UNIX V5.0. Has anobody noticed this, or knows a solution?

Quotas do not work:
  (1) as if quotaon was never used
  (2) quotacheck does not reset both counts to zero for unnamed UIDs: works
      fine for named UIDs, or when one count only is zero
  (3) repquota does not show entries with 0 blocks used (though files used)
Test with:
  cd /usr
  cp /usr/dict/words silly; chown 9876 silly
  repquota -a -v; quotacheck -a -v; repquota -a -v
  rm silly
  repquota -a -v; quotacheck -a -v; repquota -a -v
  touch silly; chown 9876 silly
  repquota -a -v; quotacheck -a -v; repquota -a -v
  rm silly

Our local Compaq people have reproduced the problem, and sent it to
engineering over 3 weeks ago...
