I wonder if it was a recent commit to src/usr.bin/login/login.c that is causing it. Can you try locally backing out Rev. 1.68 (and Rev 1.36 of Makefile)? You will ofcourse have to relogin to see whether the w(1) output has changed. BTW, I can't reproduce this problem locally. Is there any special about your local configuration, particularly regarding PAM?
