I recently upgraded to VMS V4.4 on my 11/780, and I noticed a "new"
behavior...

If a user does a SET HOST 0 to make a connection back to this machine, then
logs in and runs EDT, the device RTA1: begins logging errors.  These show up
on any terminal from which a SHOW ERROR is typed.

The more the user types into EDT, the more errors that occur.  When the user 
logs off the decnet process, the device errors on RTA1 are erased, and that
device no longer shows up in the SHOW ERROR display.

Joe Leonard reported his V4.4 crashing when he was in EDT, this may be a 
related problem, or it could be a strange new quirk.  Any insight would be 
appreciated.
