I think it is.  I don't know where the problem exists, but I seem to
remember seeing this start working more correctly, perhaps correlated
with a switch from a 4.2BSD-flavored implementation to a 4.3BSD-flavored
implementation.

Of course, if the implementations are reasonably vanilla 4.xBSD ones,
they don't do anything with the identification anyway....
