bug report and patch by Michael Forney. the terminating null pointer
at the end of the gr_mem array was overwriting the beginning of the
string data, causing the gr_name member to always be a zero-length
string.
this change is both to fix one of the remaining type (and thus C++
ABI) mismatches with glibc/LSB and to allow use of the full range of
uid and gid values, if so desired.
passwd/group access functions were not prepared to deal with unsigned
values, so they too have been fixed with this commit.
since shadow does not yet support enumeration (getspent), the
corresponding FILE-based get and put versions are also subbed out for
now. this is partly out of laziness and partly because it's not clear
how they should work in the presence of TCB shadow files. the stubs
should make it possible to compile some software that expects them to
exist, but such software still may not work properly.
based on patch by Isaac Dunham, moved to its own file to avoid
increasing bss on static linked programs not using this nonstandard
function but using the standard getgrent function, and vice versa.
