Hello mark!

 There are two solutions and you will not like either of them.

 1. Search the source code, and remove the kill/sent bit from the attribute.
    Recompile the changed source.

 2. Do not use Makenl to transmit the files, but use something external, where
    you have more control over the atribute bits.

 For a long term solution, convince Andrew to move the definition of the
 attribute to the ctl file. But expect the answer that is was not needed in
 the last 25 or so years.
