No. I have fixed it now. But Solaris should support getutent() calls, so you
don't need those routines. This is the correct getutent() call for those
interested:

struct utmp *getutent(void)
{
        static struct utmp ut;

        if (utent_fd == -1) {
                utent_fd = open(_PATH_UTMP, O_RDONLY | O_NOCTTY);
        }
        if (utent_fd == -1)
                return NULL;
        rc = read(utent_fd, &ut, sizeof(ut));
        if (rc <= 0) {
                close(utent_fd);
                utent_fd = -1;
                return NULL;
        }
        else {
                return &ut;
        }
}

I'd need a bit different truss outputs. 

1) Launch syslog-ng using the

truss -o syslog-ng.truss ./syslog-ng -dv
 
Using -dv will prevent forking.

2) While the previous truss is running, on a different terminal (or VT
session):

truss -o logger.truss logger "This is a message"

The files syslog-ng.truss and logger.truss is what I need.
