[TRLog] Nasty POST failure mode

I just found a real nasty.  Run POST/L/D.  When it asks you whether you
want to save the list of dupes, say Y and specify PRN.  Duping process
runs, tries to print the dupe list to the printer, and bombs with a runtime
error (I have a problem printing thru my port card with some DOS programs).

Now here's the bummer.  The program has bombed before it creates
PLOGxxx.bak, but after it has deleted LOG.DAT.  Fortunately, I didn't do
this before my log was submitted, so I had other PLOGxxx and LOG.OLD files,
but surely this shouldn't be(?).
