Yes; I noted this for daily snapshots at the end of:

http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/dist/archive/ns-users/9806/0161.html

but wasn't able to build a recent nam snapshot on Solaris to verify
that this was a planned change in behaviour.

I simply dropped back to nam1.0a4/ns2.1b2 so that I could see what I
was doing with nam. Building a recent nam snapshot might fix the
interaction with 2.1b3.
