I don't like such low-level messing with the utmp file. How does ftpd
on the BSDs handle utmp? This is the modal David Lee used originally, I
think.
If the login() and logout() apis are not useful (has this been tested?),
can they be improved by the BSD crew to honour the contents of the
struct utmp?
Basically, I want anything that avoids doing a write() to those files
directly.
