While working on filling in the holes in the dictionary file we use, I
came accross a strange behavior with Radiator. I had added some new
attributes to the dictionary for some of our equipment. I did a
"kill -HUP..." to reload Radiator an found that users could not authenticate
at all. The log shows:

Now, I realize that there was a gross error in the dictionary file, but that
shouldn't cause Radiator to behave this way. I would hope that Radiator
would skip the offending line and continue in a more productive fashion.
