I happy (or sorry) to report that the glitch no longer exists here.
That is, arla's klog works perfectly on the remote cell.  As our clock
has not changed, it may be that transarc's has, but that is not likely.
Another possibility is that the problem was caused by some irregularity
in our local network, perhaps?

Anyway, thanks to you all, and particularly to Per Boussard for his patient
help with this problem.  We still don't know what caused it, but at least
it's gone for the moment!
