New Revision: 192432
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/192432

Log:
  Verify that the username length is smaller than MAXLOGNAME when
  asked to verify a passwd file (pwd_mkdb -C).
  
  Entries with oversized usernames are still permitted when building
  the passwd database.
  
  When entries are >= MAXLOGNAME in length, they are correctly stored
  in passwd, pwd.db and spwd.db but are only correctly retrieved by
  getpwent*() and getpwuid*().  getpwnam*() truncates to MAXLOGNAME - 1
  when reading from a file (breaking at least sh, tcsh and bash)
  and utilities such as su(1) check, complain and fail if the
  passed name is >= MAXLOGNAME in length.
