>Description:
	w and uptime normally print system uptime and load in the form:

	21:26  up 31 days,  4:36,  5 users,  load average: 0.01, 0.04, 0.05

	More generally, that's:

	<date> up <time incl. commas>,  <n> user[s],  load average: <averages>

	However, if the system has been up for less than a minute, it'll
	print something like:

	21:26  up,  1 user, load average: 0.15, 0.00, 0.00

	I.e. it no longer prints _anything_ for the 'up time'.

	This confused me (i had to look at the output a couple of times to
	realize what happened).  From talking to others about it, apparently
	i'm not along in thinking the output format odd.  I've no doubt
	that the machine is _up_, since i just ran a command...  8-)

>How-To-Repeat:
	boot a fast machine, and log in, and run 'uptime' or 'w'.  If
	the machine has been up for less than a minute, note that it
	simply says "up," rather than including the amount of time
	that it's been up.

>Fix:
	Apply the following diff:
