Strange. This part of /usr/src/bin/date/date.c is responsible for the
wtmp record:
/* set the time */
if (nflag || netsettime(tval)) {
logwtmp("|", "date", "");
tv.tv_sec = tval;
tv.tv_usec = 0;
if (settimeofday(&tv, (struct timezone *)NULL))
err(1, "settimeofday (timeval)");
logwtmp("{", "date", "");
^^^
}
Btw., your ``still logged in'' is also bogus (most likely out of
`last' not recognizing the ``}'' as a special token), mine looks like:
date { Sun May 5 16:15
date | Sun May 5 16:14

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
