Actually, this isn't a bug, it's just that you get a recursive invocation
of the alias if you don't disable it.  Here's a better way to do it:
	alias login 'source ~/.logout; "login" \!*'
Whenever you build an alias around itself, if the recursion isn't
head recursion, you'll need to quote the name.
