 The bin/23562 is about same bugs of getty(8) and telnetd(8). It have
 very old patch for telnetd(8) and no patch for getty(8).
 
 The history of the patch in bin/23562 is mysterious. Originally it was
 introduced in bin/6492 and then commited, many years ago:
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/libexec/telnetd/Attic/telnetd.c.d=
 iff?r1=3D1.7.2.4&r2=3D1.7.2.5
 Three years later (August 2001) it was removed during: "Feature
 merging and diff reduction between this code and crypto telnet":
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/libexec/telnetd/Attic/telnetd.c.d=
 iff?r1=3D1.29&r2=3D1.30
 But the removing was not complete. telnetd.c still includes
 <sys/mman.h> that had been need for mmap() and munmap() and manual
 page of telnetd(8) still states that 'if' option of gettytab is
 supported. The patch in bin/23562 was proposed in February 2001, i.e.
 before it was removed in revision 1.30.
 In July 2003 the sources of telnetd(8) were moved to
 src/contrib/telnet where the revision numbering is different.
 
 Personally I think my patch ot telnetd.c is better and the the
 inclusion of <sys/mman.h> could be also removed from the telnetd.c as
 needless.
