    Test Identification Base/getutxid 2,3,4
    Problem Summary TSD4U.00161 This test may fail on all implementations when run against a database which contains entries from previous test runs.
    Problem Text
    The getutxid() #2, #3, #4 writes records to utmpx by
    write_several_entries() and expect getutxid() will return one
    of them.
    But getutxid() return a record which has existed before calling
    write_several_entries().
    So, the test would fail because above each record has different
    time stamp.

    The function getutxid() will not check utmp->ut_id when ut_type
    (designated by an argument) is BOOT_TIME or OLD_TIME or NEW_TIME.
    If ut_type is BOOT_TIME, then getutxid() returns real "system boot"
    record.
    If ut_type is OLD_TIME or NEW_TIME, the record written by the
    previous test will be returned by getutxid().
    We believe this is correct behavior of getutxid().

    For passing test #2, #3 and #4, we have to clean up utmp and utmpx
    before each test is executed.

    We tried following processes as an experiment.
    Truncate utmp and utmpx before each test.
