OK, I've been doing some testing with this.  With test4-np1 I can reproduce
this.  My old Assabet simply reboots when logging out from the sixth telnet
session.  I can't reproduce this on test2-ac1-rmk2-np3 (maybe I'm just not
trying the right combinations of multiple login/logouts).  Just tried
logging in and out 12 times and it's still working fine. ??????
