       In November, a minimalist /sbin/nologin was written in C
    in order to allow it to be statically linked; the question
    of doing anything more (eg, logging) was set aside for the
    duration of the 5.2 code freeze. The present code also has
    a bug^W feature, in that it outputs the string-terminating
    zero byte.
       I would like to add logging and fix this bug, but I know
    some people have strongly held opinions about the correct
    behaviour of "hello world"; if these changes would upset
    anyone, please let me know. (And email me directly -- the
    list doesn't need another bikeshed!)
