[DragonFly - Bug #2199] screen segfaults if utmpx isn't present


From: Matthew Dillon via Redmine <bugtracker-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Issue #2199 has been updated by Matthew Dillon .


On utmpx, it should suffice for the early boot rc scripts to create
    an empty utmpx, e.g. 'echo -n > /var/run/utmpx' at some point after
    the mounts have gone RW.

Bug #2199: screen segfaults if utmpx isn't present

Right after boot, utmpx isn't created yet, and screen will segfault if it's not present.

I'm guessing utmpx needs to be created earlier so programs that rely on it won't segfault.
