Did anybody notice that the output of "w" is messed up in the latest
2.2.6-BETA (built an hour ago)?

/home/blaz> uname -a
FreeBSD gold.amis.net 2.2.6-BETA FreeBSD 2.2.6-BETA #0: Wed Mar 11 
18:31:09 CET 1998 
root@gold.amis.net:/usr/home/blaz/FreeBSD-2.2/src/sys/compile/GOLD  i386 
/home/blaz> w
 7:29pm  up 26 mins, 2 users, load averages: 0.56, 0.74, 0.78
USER             TTY FROM              LOGIN@  IDLE WHAT
root     v0  -                 7:28pm     - -tcsh (tcsh)
blaz     p0  :0.0              7:26pm     - w

I guess this was caused by Jordan's merges and he probably accidentally
merged the "USER TTY FROM LOGIN IDLE WHAT" line in /usr/src/usr.bin/w/w.c 
from -CURRENT. This line is a bit longer in -CURRENT because of
the 16 char username support.

Also, I had to do a MAKEDEV after upgrading to 2.2.6-BETA from a
two-week-old 2.2.5-STABLE because the keyboard was dead in X11 othwerise.
I think this should be mentioned in the documentation somewhere (that a
MAKEDEV is needed after an upgrade).
