Hello - long time user, first time contributor.
The screen lock message does not present GECOS data correctly if it -
as is tradition - is a comma-separated string; so rather than:
screen used by Tore Sinding Bekkedal <toresbe> on pascal.
I get:
screen used by Tore Sinding Bekkedal,,, <toresbe> on pascal.
Here's a patch which should fix that. I hope it's been formatted
correctly, sent to the right place, and meets the appropriate
standards - if not, please let me know.
