Saurik, using dtrace I do see something touching about 50 logs in /var/log/asl every time in login. I wonder where that comes from. I don't think it is getlastl

  As thought_alarm states, getlastlogxbyname may not be accessing utmpx anymore (I have not myself checked); however, the behavior of that function cannot be affected by .hushlogin, as it is called before .hushlogin is checked. All of this logic (excepting step #7) happens within a single function (main), so it is very simple to see the flow. (edit: I have gone ahead and checked: thought_alarm is correct, in that getlastlogxbyname is now using ASL instead of utmpx; however, I have also verified my sequencing assertion with dtrace: .hushlogin has no effect on the usage of ASL, but manually passing -q to login does: it thereby cannot be the source of a .hushlogin-mediated delay.)
