   Basically, the change to prefer env var ‘USER’ over ‘LOGNAME’
   is backward-incompatibile.  That functionality will return as
   a configure script option -- stay tuned.

I changed my mind (partially); that functionality is effected in
the configure script, but it is not a normal "option".  Anyway,
the README now mentions the other way to influence the behavior:

(The second link shows the related change to "make check".)
