Hi,
ssh-1.2.26 will no longer compile because of this. Is this really
correct? If so at least bits/utmp.h should be changed too I think.
It is needed to be name-space clean. AFAIK HP-UX does the same. I
didn't change bits/utmp.h because there is no standard that specifies
the contents of utmp.h.
We could provide a
#define e_exit __e_exit
#define e_termination __e_termination
when the user selects some _XXX_SOURCE feature select macro, but I
couldn't think of a reasonable set to add it to.
