[mosh-devel] mosh-server doesn't display (all of) the motd on Ubuntu Trusty machines

On Ubuntu (at least Trusty) machines the motd is split between
/etc/motd and /run/motd.dynamic . Note that Ubuntu Precise handles
this differently and /etc/motd is a symlink to /var/run/motd . So on
Trusty machines where mosh-server prints /etc/motd, it misses all
content in /run/motd.dynamic (on the athena dialups that is all motd
content, as none of it is in /etc/motd .) "man motd" on both Precise
and Trusty contains some useful information.
