openssh unix dev - Mar 2001 - Continued utmp probs with sshlogin.c

Hi all,

I've hacked in some better logging for what's going on with my logins
and
utmp/wtmp.  Everything seems OK except for u.ut_host.

In my case, the actual variable host for this test case is
aragon.cheshirelaw.com.  This is fine (as my logs show):

Mar  5 21:22:47 frodo sshd[10274]: Actual: 983852567 /dev/ttyp0
	aragon.cheshirelaw.com

However, check out what u.ut_host is logged as:

Mar  5 21:22:47 frodo sshd[10274]: wtmp entry: ttyp0 983852567 gtc
aragon.cheshirel\^Wf\M-$:0\M-S\M-?\M-_\M-*\^D\^A

This whacks w, who, and utmp.  all the sizeof's seem ok for my 2.8 release
box:

Mar  5 21:22:47 frodo sshd[10274]: wtmp: sizeof(u)=36, sizeof(u.ut_host)=16
Mar  5 21:22:47 frodo sshd[10274]: wtmp: sizeof(u.ut_line)=8,
sizeof(u.ut_name)=8
Mar  5 21:22:47 frodo sshd[10274]: wtmp: sizeof(u.ut_time)=4

Any ideas?
