Log:
  MFC r231514:
  
    Set read buffer size to multiple of sizeof(struct futx).
  
    If the utmpx database gets updated while an application is reading it,
    there is a chance the reading application processes partially
    overwritten entries. To solve this, make sure we always read a multiple
    of sizeof(struct futx) at a time.
