RDTC JSC
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD k-45-monitor 9.2-STABLE FreeBSD 9.2-STABLE #24 r265054M: Mon May 5 20:04:48 NOVT 2014 root at k-45-monitor:/usr/obj/usr/local/src/sys/K-45-MONITOR amd64

>Description:
	Modern versions of FreeBSD moved from wtmp to utx.log
	and last(1) deals with utx.log but still prints "wtmp begins ..."
	at the end of output.

	Also, "last -f filename" does not affect this output but it should.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Run "last".

>Fix:
