A patch to fix lastlog none

Description H.J. Lu 2003-11-10 17:17:43 UTC 
In lastlog.c, there is

        tm = localtime (&lastlog.ll_time);

it assumes ll_time is time_t. But in <bits/utmp.h>, there are


struct lastlog
  {
#if __WORDSIZE == 64 && defined __WORDSIZE_COMPAT32
    int32_t ll_time;
#else
    __time_t ll_time;
#endif
    char ll_line[UT_LINESIZE];
    char ll_host[UT_HOSTSIZE];
  };
