The drag about XENIX is that there is the capability for who -r and
other such command to work correctly.  Too bad that the init under XENIX
is too brain dead to add those entries to /etc/utmp when it fires up.
Of course, an init that truly knows nothing about /etc/inittab should
be pitched out the door anyway ...
