Subject: patch to /etc/athena/logerror to fix positive feedback
From: Sam Hartman <hartmans@MIT.EDU>
Sender: root@MIT.EDU

	A positive-feedback condition exists on RISC/6000s with
integrated Ethernet adapters: if the network is unplugged errors are
logged to syslog, creating addition network traffic.  The following
patch supressing logging o the error, so the system does not start
forking infinite logerror scripts.
