As discussed off the list, it works ok if clogin isn't set to use enable 
ie if you have autoenable or noenable set.

The bug seems is triggered if the $enable variable gets set, then the next 
time round the loop it calls code which references a variable which isn't 
defined (anywhere in the code).

I can see a number of possible fixes to the current clogin code but would 
prefer an expert to take a look at it...
