This isn't really a bug, but an undocumented feature.

In 4.1bsd, if you create a file named .hushlogin in a user's home
directory, that user won't see the message of the day (/etc/motd).
If your motd is long, or even if it isn't, you may want to create
such a file in uucp's home directory.  This will save a bit of
time, both cpu and connect.  It will also save you some embarassment
if you happen to put the phrase "Shere" in your /etc/motd.
