Well, since I'm not going to maintain a fork of this, I'm going to remove the code. The code in our init for the same function: static void clear_session_logs(session_t *sp __unused) { /* * XXX: Use getutxline() and call pututxline() for each entry. * Is this safe to do this here? Is it really required anyway? */ } so I think I'll blank it! Thanks, and sorry for taking us down a long and pointless avenue.
