If both utmp & utmpx interfaces are available, just use utmpx
As we already do with wtmp & wtmpx, where only one of the interface sets is compiled in at a time, stop building & potentially calling both the utmp & utmpx interfaces, which could lead to confusion and corruption, especially when xdm passed -u /.../utmpx and sessreg wrote utmp format records to the file instead.
