Curious.  I suspect there's got to be something with the way that Xitami
is tracking the time (setting an alarm and waiting for a signal in all
the released versions).  Possibly the way this is handled under OS/2 is
more prone to trouble than under some other operating systems.

Is anyone else having trouble with log cycling in 2.5b4/2.5b5 where
there are no "rename error"s mentioned in the log file?
