No, only getpwnam_shadow. Currently libexec/xscreensaver/xscreensaver-auth is installed setuid root; as things stand it doesn't seem to work properly with setgid _shadow. (It would be nice to improve this as xscreensaver seems much better at preventing keyboard input, i.e. passwords, from reaching terminals than some of the other screen lockers).
