B.t.w., what is maybe important and what I forgot to say is that the
"alternative" usernames specifically show up when the system is very
busy. Still wondering whether this could be a glibc bug or so...
But are they the right ones?
Yes, the listed username (I only saw one, but I don't trace that script
by default, so I did see only the error that it couldn't find "root" in
its output many times duing heavy load) is a uid 0 user.
I can create all kinds of alternative methods and workarounds, that not
the issue, but I really would like to know what's going on here, as
until now I blindly trusted getpwuid to give then first occurance back.
