Description

As has been described in
https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/logging-general/200907.mbox/[e-mail]%3E
the reconnection works only for the first time, when the connection is lost, because after the first reconnection-attempt, the thread-object is non-null.

Assuming it really should work each time when the connection is lost, either comment it out like in above proposal (which could lead to multiple simultaneous threads trying to reconnect) or set the thread-object to null when the reconnect-thread ends.
