I sometimes have an xterm session open, and login into someone
elses account via login.  After exiting the session back to my account,
who (utmp) still shows the other account logged in forever.

I.E.

brian@apt> login bobr
password:
bobr@apt> exit
brian@apt> who
brian            ttyv0   Mar 21 22:31
bobr             ttyp2   Mar 21 22:47
brian            ttyp4   Mar 22 16:09

the bobr is wrong. If I do the same thing with another account,
the bobr is replaced by whichever other account I use.

Is this the expected behavior?
