Some of you have run into the bug where you log in while the
workstation is reactivating, and it logs you out just after you finish
logging in.  This bug existed on public Sun workstations as well.

I talked to Craig Fields today, and got the one-line fix.  I've
applied it to the source, rebuilt xlogin, installed it on quiche, and
updated /mit/linux/packages/xlogin.tgz.

The only file affected is /etc/athena/xlogin.  All users should get
the new version of this package, since it's a fairly annoying bug.
