Does it make sense to patch whowatch to use utmpx/utx on FreeBSD, even

If you can do that, I'd like to try it out.
I may explore this experimentally in a personal repository to assess
feasibility. This would be exploratory only and without any commitment
or timeline. If it leads to something usable, I’ll follow up on the
list.
I don't know it this is of any help (I am not the C dev), but I just
found this patch for version 1.4 for utmpx

Kind regards
