Description of problem:
[root@laptop root]# service canna start
Starting cannaserver:                                      [FAILED]

Canna started properly in Phoebe's original kernel-2.4.20-2.2.  However
kernel-2.4.20-2.11 and kernel-2.4.20-2.15 both began to exhibit this behavior. 
If I boot in Psyche's kernel-2.4.18-19.8.0 Canna behaves properly.  (More
details about versions below.)

[root@laptop root]# ps -ef |grep canna |grep -v grep
bin       4431     1  0 01:26 ?        00:00:00 cannaserver -syslog -u bin

Strangely after saying [FAILED] cannaserver is running when you check the
processes.  Testing Japanese character XIM input, input and character conversion
seems to work fully, indicating that Canna is operating properly.

[root@laptop init.d]# cannaserver -syslog -u bin
Terminated
[root@laptop init.d]# echo $?
143
[root@laptop init.d]# ps -ef |grep canna |grep -v grep
bin       4515     1  0 01:31 ?        00:00:00 cannaserver -syslog -u bin

Checking /etc/init.d/canna, the system starts the service with the above
command, but terminates and returns an error code despite the Canna service
starting properly.
