The fix for 3488688 removed the spawning of a logger thread for, usually short lived, clients. However, calling openlog when the client cim environment causes issues because it will change the loglevel that may have been set by the client.
openlog is completely optional according to the man page, so the call to startLogging for clients should just be removed.
