I have applied these as follows. I will send you a copy of my
patch under separate cover. There were a few changes; I believe your
change would break the situation where login.krb5 was used. Please
confirm that the patch I send you works if you get a chance; it would
be great if we could get this resolved soon.

Mostly done as you suggested. I changed the terminal handling
a bit; I am not quite prepared to just skip terminal initialization
when using LOGIN_F. (I know libpty currently deals, but this is not
set in stone yet.) Also, you don't want to send lusername or
rusername for login.krb5.

Applied with no change.

I'm still trying to convince Ted to keep the old behavior as
the default and add a backward compatability option. The current code
contains Ted's fix, which does almost exactly the same thing you did.
If I am sufficiently persuasive, the final solution will be slightly
different. However, whatever we end up doing will allow you to solve
this problem.
