Hello Jonathon, I investigated and it's probably my fault -- I'm compiling and statically linking on an Ubuntu system that expects it in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/utempter/utempter, and athena.dialup has it in /usr/lib/utempter/utempter.
Could you please install libutempter-dev on the dialups? Then I can compile on Athena, and my guess is it will start working again. (Or I can spin up a VM that more closely matches the dialups if necessary.) (Anton, this is a bit of a special case as I am the one who is building and installing Mosh at MIT -- we use this to test release candidates.)
