OpenSSH and utmp/utmpx

[Amitai Schlair <schmonz%pkgsrc.org@localhost>]

After upgrading from NetBSD 2.0.3 to 4.0 and rebuilding my packages,  
I've noticed that OpenSSH from pkgsrc no longer updates utmp (only  
utmpx). Removing the following lines from the package Makefile results  
in both utmp and utmpx being updated:

.if (${OPSYS} == "NetBSD") && exists(/usr/include/utmpx.h)
# if we have utmpx et al do not try to use login()
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=       --disable-libutil
.endif

I have some old programs that use utmp, so I'd like to commit the  
change to remove these lines, if it's safe to do so. Does anyone know  
why the OpenSSH package does this?

Thanks,

- Amitai
