Is this a new bug in XR5?  It doesn't seem to show up on a couple of
machines here that run a vendor's XR4 (mips RISCwindows in
particular).  Since they had to modify the R4 xterm code to deal with
their own brand of pty stuff, perhaps they fixed it either
inadvertently or otherwise.  I don't have R4 source lying around any
more to check.  Basically, if I try to set the log file to an
unreadable file either through -lf, the X resource or a link, logging
won't turn on at all.

Just curious,
