Grab the sources for login. RedHat's RPM uses util-linux-2.9o.tar.gz as a
source. I don't know if that's standard or not. Unpack, untar, and take
a gander at login-utils/login.c. What you are looking for is on line 1197
or thereabouts:
printf(_("\n%s login: "), thishost); fflush(stdout);
You should be able to go from there... :)
Happy compiling,
