An alternative is to do setpwent()/getpwent()/setpwent() which should
abort the started search without wasting too much time trying to

...and this is exactly what has been implemented in upstream. ;-)
From a quick look that seems to be the implementation. I haven't done
any testing though but this should work in any case.
Thanks for confirmation! Patch is in git, will be in next upload. Due to
#820984 (still open) I can't give a time frame for upload.
I still question the usefulness of setpwent()/getpwent() in the first
place as there is no guarantee that any resources opened for setpwent()
are used for other getpw{nam,uid}() calls.
