Subject: wall moans about :0 too (was: forwarded message from Cron Daemon)

Package: bsdutils
Version: 1.3-1

Here is another program that moans when the ut_line field in utmp
refers to a nonexistent file.

I still think that X should continue to put :0 in the ut_line field,
and that the other programs should be changed not to complain if the
name doesn't exist in /dev.

Ian.
