UPDATE:

It turns out that StarOffice's setup script was setting the LANG variable
to 'us'  I changed it to 'en_US' as suggested in other threads and the error
went away. BUT the utmp is still not getting updated with xterm login shells.
Rlogin, rxvt, telnet all update utmp fine.  Anybody have any advice?

Thanks,
Brian
