problem with vs.2a24 creating new dirs

i recently installed version 2 alpha 24 (August 9, 1999) and the 2a24 patch.

following problem occures:

when hypermail should create a new directory in the specified hm_dir it does NOT but creates this new directory in the hypermail/src dir instead (eg. ..../src/att-0001/).
the files which should be put into this new dir are still written to the right destination (if one exists - that means, if i create ..../hm_dir/att-0001/ manually, att-file.ext is written to that place).

sorry, but i am no c programmer, perhaps someone can give me hint, what i am doing wrong ... ?!
