Hello.

I noticed an inconsistency in the libc sources between
src/libc/posix/unistd/getlogin.c and src/libc/posix/unistd/getlogin.txh &
djgpp.env. This is with regard to the user's login name. The texinfo docs
say the default is 'dosuser', but the code has 'user' as the default user.
In practice it will be 'dosuser' because djgpp.env sets $USER (if not set)
to 'dosuser'. The simplest fix is to change getlogin.c in accordance with
getlogin.txh, djgpp.env.

This is true for DJGPP 2.01, 2.02 & CVS dated 1999-06-14. Bye,
