Just lately, when I use xlogin, sometimes in the console window it says
"waiting for workstation to finish reactivating" as the first thing.  Then
I get logged in and am thrown off shortly after.  I'm just now testing, but
it seems so far that if I don't see the reactivating message it doesn't
throw me off.

Hmm, I see that MIT IS just fixed a bug of that nature in xlogin that was
affecting Suns.  Do we have a spreading bug here?  (At least theirs had
something to do with throwing people off - don't know if the reactivating
message was involved.)
