So, you had the same problem. Good. It exists. Thanks for that
information.

I don't like your workaround, however:
$ grep sendmail /var/adm/messages | wc -l
56
$ grep daemon.info /var/adm/messages | wc -l
11624
I'm mainly trying to work out what had changed.
My original question was:
How do I determine the caller? I need to examine the startup of the
MTA, as that's where the openlog() calls occur.
