The only possible solution came from chris@vlsi.cs.caltech.edu:

After reading the README of ypfake, I think it is too much action
for me. I mean there should be a clean solution from Sun for
this problem. Obviously I am not alone with this problem. The most
mails were 'ME TOO' mails. Where is YOUR solution, Sun?
In any case, thanks very much for all answers,
Martin.
