[DGD] Call_out question

[Noah Lee Gibbs]

  Hey, folks.  I'm having a very odd problem.

  In a function called by initd, I'm scheduling a call_out.  The 
call_out() call returns 1, so it's valid.  I supplied 0 for the time so it 
should occur immediately after the initial thread is done.

  I put a logging statement at the beginning of the function that would be 
called, so I've verified that it's never called.  That's not the odd 
thing, though.  The odd thing is that I can't telnet to the server if I 
try to schedule that call_out -- it appears hung.  I can comment out just 
the line with the call_out and I get access just fine.  I can leave the 
line in and I don't get a prompt when I telnet in.  The port is being 
opened, telnet connects.  I just don't get any output in response.

  As I say, I can comment out the line entirely so I don't need the 
call_out to succeed in order to start up.  And I've put the logging 
statement in, so I know it's not calling the function anyway.  I'm also 
not calling suspend_system in the usual places -- only call_out.

  Anybody know what's up with this?
