Perhaps this has been fixed in a new binary of xterm released 
with a newer X11 binary kit, but I thought it might help some people to 
know that the old one appears to have the path for the utmp file (where 
"who's logged in" is kept track of) hard-coded to /etc/utmp.  The 
location for netbsd is /var/run/utmp. 
	I noticed this because even xterm +ut wasn't registering me as 
logged in.  A symbolic link seems to make xterm happy, however, so doing 
"cd /etc ; ln -s /var/run/utmp utmp" as root should do it.

	If this is old knowledge  a) wish I'd known sooner!  b) flame me 
heartlessly.. I'm too happy that I actually show up on a finger of my 
system to care!!
