        libexec/ftpd/conf.c: revision 1.65

Fix uninitialized memory usage in count_users()

If the file was previously empty, pids table is not set, the code however used
pids[0] which is uninitialized in this case. In some scenarios it may lead to
propagate garbage value from pids[0] to the file and cause writing outside of
allocated memory.

OK lukem@
