The last thing I tried seemed to call its version "9.0.305 Alpha.02".
Various changes/corrections to that kit:

With any luck, at least the source-file corruption in that kit might
be fixed (again?).
There's still a serious bug in (at least) CKHTTP.C:
fp[n] = fopen("NLA0:","r"); /* CK wants a fp, give it one */
I don't know which sub-genius had that flash of inspiration. (The
compiler likes it, at least.) I assume that correcting it would require
some serious changes to the file-I/O scheme.

Details? Did you specify Multinet explicitly, instead of relying on
its TCPIP emulation?
