Yes, by internally running rlogin, but that's beside the point;
the *only* implementation of remote_exec in dejagnu-1.4.3
is rsh_exec, and that doesn't use rlogin mode.

It'll be nice to see a telnet_exec method added to telnet.exp.
I'm pretty sure it'll be minimally invasive.  Actually,
maybe there should be a generic expect_exec that is just
invoked by any of the connection-oriented communication
modules...
