This patch works for logging in, but not logging out. As soon as i logout, w
shows:
w: Stale utmp entry: dive ttyp7 localhost
I had fixed (kludged?) this before by replacing logout((char *)line)) on
line 588 of lib/sshsession/wtmp.c with
logoutx((char *)line,0,DEAD_PROCESS), which worked. I got that usage from
looking at what OpenSSH does...
