I have installed the new libtelnet & new telnetd & telnet. I believe the
problem resides in the telnetd code, but here is the symptoms...
/etc/gettytab:
default:\
:ap:fd#1000:im=\r\n\
Innovative Data Services Digital Network\r\n\
Newusers\: login as 'newuser' to apply for an account.\r\n\
NetBSD (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:

USED to work fine, when connecting to the system, it would display:
Innovative Data Services Digital Network
Newusers: login as 'newuser' to apply for an account.
NetBSD (zeus) (ttyp0)

NOW it displays:
Innovative Data Services Digital Network
Newuserslogin:

Granted, the problem is probably from me NOT doing something when you fixed
the telnet code, but it still seemed a little strange, so I thought I would
ask.

BTW- This message shows up the right way on console still, just not to people
who telnet in. Go figure...
