System name:		binkley
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.6E (3 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	Just login a vax.  Yes, I am serious.  And, no, they have
	not been fully desupported yet.

What's wrong:
	Zephyr loses all of my subscriptions between 30-60 seconds
	after zwgc starts.  Zwgc does not die.  I have to enter
	"zctl unhide" and manually reload all my subscriptions.

What should have happened:
	Zephyr shouldn't disdainfully toss away my subs
	just because it doesn't like vaxen.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	man vax

PS:
	Yeah, I know neither you nor anybody else on this planet
	cares one bit about this problem.  I was going to save
	this until all the vaxen in the universe go away except
	for the ones in the SIPB office, just so I would be
	guaranteed the "Most Unimportant Bug Report of the Year"
	Award, but I'm tired of it and annoyed and I felt like
	complaining.  I'll even bake cookies for anyone who
	fixes this.
