Hi Arthur,

An alternative is to do setpwent()/getpwent()/setpwent() which should

...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.
