This bug is one of the fundamental problems with unix.  Eventually, a
proper fix for it (in the form of a daemon whose sole purpose is to
hand out master/slave pty pairs while filling in a correct utmp entry)
might be attempted.

The bug is mainly there as a reminder.

Please consider taking this bug off the 'nag' list.

Thanks,
Austin
PS: I think the nag system is otherwise rather good :)
