On my fedora box, grep finds updwtmpx in /usr/include/utmpx.h
but config.h says:
/* #undef HAVE_UPDWTMPX */
Looking deeper, it's inside an
#ifdef __USE_GNU

That routing gets used in libntp/systime.c, there is about 10 lines of code.
Looks like it writes a couple of records to the file. It looks redundant to
me. Is there a reason we are preserving that code?
