Futher playing with the utmp and utmpx files show that utmpd is not doing
its job in keeping utmp and utmpx in sync. I cleared the contents of the
utmp and utmpx files then logged back in. After this, the 'w' command
showed me as being logged in, but tho 'who' command did not.
the 'utmpx' file is being maintained by utmpd, but the old-style /var/run/utmp
file is not being updated at all.
