You are correct that this was inadvertently done when setting most
of the other variables to LOCAL. I suspect that this change will not cause
significant grief given the accompanying improvements made to the
log client:
o it no longer blocks iocInit() if the log server isnt available
even if iocLogDisable is FALSE
o the log client also now periodically attempts to reconnect to the
log server if it is restarted
This is fixed here at LANL (but not yet committed to CVS at APS).
