[cups] Cannot get CUPS up at localhost:631

[Jim Anderson]

Hi Doug,

I check my 'sent' mail box and it shows that I did make the attachments, 
so they must have
been stripped. Is there another way to post them?

I will attach them to this message also, but I guess they will be 
stripped again.

Jim

I'm including 'test3.log' and 'test4.log' whice are the log files from running 'make check'. The results in test3.log show some tests running and passing before hanging. The results in test4.log don't show the same tests passing, but it hangs at the same point.
