Prior to this patch, Configure.Com would fail (either die or get the wrong
answer in some tests) because of SYS$OUTPUT redirection in batch mode and
the default to verification on. The warnings are just a hint that the
output which would have been lost is now directed to a new version of the
log file, since the job controller has an exclusive lock on the current
version. (This is all usually specific to batch mode; in interactive mode
we just assign another channel to SYS$OUTPUT, in the blithe assumption that
someone hasn't @Configure/Out=config.log
