Problem:
	if one has multiple zwgc's running on the same tty and kill one,
	you are lost by the server

Repeat:
	start 2 zwgc's on same tty, kill second and try zlocate (you're not there)

Correct Response:
	somewhere zephyr should realize that there are two zwgc's running
	on the same tty and then decrement the number of instances that tty
	[or, conversely add a second entry to the user list]


System Version:
	Athena 7.1A [also behavior seems present in older versions since it
	also happens in the Media Lab domain].

hope this makes some sense... more mindless drivel from
--hal
