Synopsis: [patch] who(1) no longer displays entries for folk logged in from xdm(1)

State-Changed-From-To: open->suspended
State-Changed-By: matteo

State-Changed-Why: 
Mark this PR as suspended: I think the problem actually resides in how xdm 
registers the session in utmp. This is done by the command sessreg in 
/usr/local/lib/X11/xdm/Xstartup. Instead of using -l $DISPLAY -h "", I suggest
using just -h $DISPLAY (no -l), so that xdm behaves like gdm does and adds a 
more invormative entry in utmp.
Just in case we want to reopen this PR: Notice that w(1) is affected too.
