I guess it's a user error, utmpx.h and utmp.h shouldn't both be present.

If you're on /stable/8 try removing leftover includes from /head by
reinstalling /usr/include, e.g.

  $ mv /usr/include /usr/include.old
  $ make distrib-dirs installincludes -C/usr/src

  # a list of files that shouldn't be there
  $ mtree -klink -cinp /usr/include.old >old.mtree
  $ mtree -klink -cinp /usr/include >new.mtree
  $ diff -u old.mtree new.mtree

struct utmpx shouldn't be used on /stable/8 as there is no utmpx.h.

  # from vte-0.26.2/gnome-pty-helper/acinclude.m4
  AC_CHECK_HEADERS(sys/time.h utmp.h utmpx.h)

  if test "$ac_cv_header_utmpx_h" = "yes"; then
      AC_DEFINE(UTMP,[struct utmpx],[Define to the name of a structure which holds utmp data.])
  else
      AC_DEFINE(UTMP,[struct utmp],[Define to the name of a structure which holds utmp data.])
  fi

And if you're on /head then stale utmp.h should be removed, e.g.

  $ make delete-old -C/usr/src

making the port use ut_user instead of ut_name.
