Ok. So far so good. The first change you recommended seems to work better. We
now get proper looking records. Unfortunately this one machine is extremely low
usage, so we'll have to wait to see how it handles under higher load. It also
seemed to fix the issue of that 'extra' login record that I thought may have
been the privilege separation.

FYI, I had these notes from our build of 3.6.1:

  * Due to VerifyReverseMapping option causing sshd core dumps, these
    changes need to be made also (for IRIX):
    *** NOTE: this was fixed as of 6.5.20+ [not tested yet though] ***

  Edit $SRC/config.h

  change:

    /* #undef BROKEN_GETADDRINFO */
    to
    #define BROKEN_GETADDRINFO
  and 
    #define HAVE_GETADDRINFO 1
    to
    /* #define HAVE_GETADDRINFO 1 */ 

We won't know if sgi actually fixed this issue until we run it on a higher usage
box than the one we have this running on right now. 

Thanks for your help.

You can close the bug. If it happens again, I'll just open a new bug and refer
back. Hopefully this fix will still work on a higher usage system. I don't see
why it wouldn't.
