Attached is a debdiff patch that reflects Vince Busam's changes for the
latest shadow package in Hardy.
Please feel free to change the changelog entry as appropriate. I will be
going abroad tomorrow, so it is likely that I will not be in a position
to make trivial changes to the debdiff before
I can confirm this on hardy. The attached patch optimizes the case
where useradd is passed a valid, unique username id.

Forgot to say:
I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 but I recall similar behavior with a Mandrake 10.1 distro
a few years ago. This is probably a upstream problem.
Some more info:
In my current setup, ldap is only used for the passwd DB --- Kerberos is used
for authentication, so there is no need for shadow
