OK, this evening or weekend.

On a related note, in syscalls.cc, login() opens utmp through
a series of "ut" calls ending with setutent, and leaves it open, 
presumably for use by logout. 
I think we should set the close on exec flag in setutent.

Now logout doesn't use the "ut" calls, and reopens utmp. 
Shouldn't it be changed to use the "ut" calls?

IMO none of this should delay 1.3.21
