I am quite sure that this won't cause any breakage. As long as the
implementation provides the utmpx structure and the functions required
by POSIX, why shouldn't we use it then?

FreeBSD's <utmpx.h> doesn't provide the *TMPX_FILE definitions which
are present in other implementations for two reasons:

- It is not standardized by POSIX.
- I never want applications to access the utmpx files manually.
