An error reporting problem: when telnetd has trouble with the attach,
it will report:

	Warning: Attach failed; you have no home directory
	What you type is protected by encryption.
	Warning: Attach failed; you have a temporary home directory

telnetd might be the only program we have which reports warnings from
the first al_acct_create() invocation.  It probably shouldn't.  We
should check other programs just in case.
