>Description:
		i run mgetty on my modem port (tty00) for dial-in
		access. when i use pppd to dial out of the same port,
		i get the following from /usr/bin/w: 
	
		w: Stale utmp entry: dialout tty00 

		everything works ok otherwise & w prints other login
		sessions ok so this is not serious.

		my mgetty is version 1.1.22, installed via up-to-date pkgsrc.
