BUG # 3617

For an expression having a concrete numeric value,  Indeterminate is reported

BUG HISTORY:    PRESENT   4.2 for Microsoft Windows (February 28, 2002)
                ABSENT    4.1 for Microsoft Windows (November 2, 2000)

The value of the integral is defined.
However, Mathematica reports  Indeterminate  which is invalid.

                Integrate[Log[z]/(1 + z^2), {z, 0, Infinity}]

ACTUAL:         Indeterminate

EXPECTED:       0

CHECK-UP:       NIntegrate[Log[z]/(1 + z^2), {z, 0, Infinity}] // Chop

                0
