from code:
login_argv[login_argc++] = options.login;
...
login_options_to_argv(login_argv, &login_argc,
options.logopt, username);
...
execv(options.login, login_argv);
where:
options.login is --login-program
login-options is --login-options
so the man page is wrong, --login-options should be without the path.
I'll fix it.
