Symptoms:
   Programs that use the logging tool may infinite loop on startup.
   For instance on some DEC machines, the xmgr utility (which uses the
   logging tool) loops. 

Fix:
   The following is a patch to clib/cl_join.c (from the V2.1 release).
   cd to the clib source directory of your release and pipe
   this news item into the patch command.
