Package: libc6
Version: 2.1.3-2

This may be a bug that goes into base-files, but there is nothing in
libc6 as of 2.1.3-2 that rotates the /var/log/wtmp files.  I've also looked
at the changelogs for 2.1.3-7 and they don't mention wtmp at all.  
Niether does base-files 2.1.18 or 2.1.19, which i also checked.

Not rotating the wtmp files, which should happen at least once every few
months creates files of hundreds of megs in size that fill up the /var
partition unnecessarily.
