well, no. I was investigating this problem: when compiling on linux I
always get a warning about faxgetty being linked against libutil even if
the binary is not loading any symbol from the library.

So, I removed the LIBUTIL part from faxd/Makefile, and faxgetty was
working anyway. Then, I found that on freebsd, faxgetty was not working
anymore.

I now find, that the problem is not libutil, but faxgetty itself: on
linux it uses GettySysV.c++ that doesn't uses libutil, while on BSD it
uses GettyBSD.c++ that require libutil.

So, probably, configure should check about libutil only when GETTY is
BSD and not when GETTY is SysV.

Bye,
Giuseppe
