Hi.

A month or so ago, a couple of people reported that sometimes after
rebooting their 4.2 systems, zhm wasn't running.  Yesterday, snork had
this problem.  It's weird that zhm always works on 4.0 systems but
sometimes dies on 4.2 systems.  (As far as I can tell, the zhm's use
the exact same source tree and same C library...)

So anyway, I built a new zephyr rpm from zephyr 2.0.4.  (This is not
in the sipb-athena locker, I ftp'd it from athena-dist.)  I have no
reason to believe that this will fix the problem.  (In fact, zephyr
2.0 changes the locations of some files, so it's likely to wreak
havoc.)  But this should make the problem more fun to debug.

Have a nice day,
Sal.
