I have a test I am trying to set up that involves having a fair number
of cascaded slaves, and am running into the following problem...

The provider (node 2) has decided that the subscriber (node 3) needs
to wait for sync 18 to start up the subscription.

2004-11-19 12:19:48 EST WARN   remoteWorkerThread_1: copy set: data provider 2 only on sync 18 - sleep 5 seconds

We then proceed to sync #19, 20, 21, and so forth, and the above
message keeps coming up.

It looks as though prov_seqno (in remote_worker.c) isn't being
updated.  I have added in output of event->ev_seqno, giving the following:
