--- Comment #1 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
We cannot fix this because for bi-arch systems, we want compatibility with the
32-bit utmpx struct layout, per this comment:
/* The fields ut_session and ut_tv must be the same size when compiled
32- and 64-bit. This allows files and shared memory to be shared
between 32- and 64-bit applications. */
