Well, /etc/rc.boot is already doing a "> /etc/mtab" to create an empty
file in your root, and mount (since root is mounted r/w on 3.x) is marking
the filesystem as mounted.  A write to /etc/utmp seems fairly harmless.
Indeed, one might consider it a feature (;-) to have a record of
single-user boots.
