Hey all,

While working on a port of NN, I ran into a strange thing in me
/etc/passwd file.

   _hoststated:*:89:89:HostState Daemon:/var/empty:/sbin/nologin
   _dbus:*:572:572:dbus user:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin

If you'll notice, the _dbus user has a non-existent directory listed as
the home directory. Shouldn't this instead read '/var/empty' just like
every other daemon? It seems to be bad style for a package to create an
user that has 'invalid' data inside.
