In that retirement page, Roy mentions a known bug in NEC4.2. Does anyone 
have more information on that?

"At the time of this writing, the compiled NEC-4.2 from LLNL has been 
found to contain at least one bug (which has been repaired in the 
current EZNEC Pro/4), and the recently released NEC-5 has a substantial 
number. There is currently no one at LLNL able to fix these and no one 
outside LLNL authorized to distribute updated versions, so anyone 
purchasing those programs and using them with the public domain EZNEC 
Pro program will encounter the bugs and may not have any way to get them 
fixed."
