Here we go again. Mj is in an abort loop because something is wrong
with your installation, usually permissions, but it can also be broken
versions of Perl.
Does Mj have permission to write to the log file? How about the log file
directory? The lists file (i.e. the list file, the list.config file,
etc.)? The lists file directory? Is wrapper installed correctly (setuid
root)? I.e. when you logon as a user *other* than root or majordom,
what's displayed when you run these?
./test
./wrapper test
Yes, the './' matters. You should get the logon uid/gid for the first
case but the majordom uid/gid in the second.

At least 5.001e I hope. Try 'perl -v' and if you don't have unofficial
patch level 'e' or later, upgrade to 5.003. You should upgrade anyway
for that matter.
