The process that creates the utmp and wtmp files have changed their format.The files
are in /var/log. As soon as these files get replaced, the problem will
dissapear. Check out either /etc/cron.daily or /etc/cron.weekly or /etc/cron.montly
and look for wtmp or utmp. Then run the file that refers to either one of them
yourself. This will rotate the files with savelog.
You can also do this by running savelog directly, check out 'man savelog'.
