Re: LOG.nnnnnn.0

The reason you have so many LOG.<pid>.0 files laying around is
that they are not being merged back into the main LOGFILE because
they have mode 222, which indicates they are still in use.  They
are changed to mode 666 when the program logging to them terminates.

Anyway, the fix to the problem is to add a call to logcls() at the
beginning of cleanup() in uux.c.  Otherwise any temporary log files
used by uux would not be changed to mode 666 when uux terminated.

You may also find a LOG.<pid>.0 file left after a program aborts,
use uuclean to get rid of those.
