But you obviously missed one. Take a close look at your log file and the
directory where it lives. Mj must be able to create a lock file in the
log file directory and write to the log file or it gets into the "abort
loop" bug you're seeing (which causes Perl to overflow internal stacks
due to infinite recursion of 'abort').
