Basically, you'll need to pass -h to login, but because of the vhangup feature that's now a bit more tricky to test directly. Installing telnetd (or telnetd-ssl) is likely the easiest option (I am using that via xinetd). Note that rsh-redone-server is still broken (see #1101703). I would then expect to have environment variables from /etc/environment set up when logging in via telnetd in the shell (but that's currently not the case as login is looking for a "remote" pam config that doesn't exist by default).
