And I would be happy to put a notice into the source code at the utmpx bits to warn future developers that some folks still customize their builds to use utmp, therefore please don't frotz the code without very good reason.
In fact, I don't see why in 1.7 we couldn't take the utmp-related code and split it out into a separate file that could be over-ridden in the Makefile, if that would make it easier to deal with. --lyndon
