Setup: DECsystem 5820, ultrix 4.0
       Any terminal connected through a DHB32

If, during rlogin (to any local host), the control terminal is turned off,
all processes die except rlogin, which detaches from the controling terminal
and starts furiously eating CPU time.

Any suggestions on what to do to prevent this?
