@ -51,6 +51,15 @@ Fix: This was a build failure which affected only the FAQ and has since
as follows: tar --unlink -xvzf FAQ.tar.gz -C /usr/share/doc
to get an english FAQ.
<strong>o getpwnam(3) semantics are incorrect in some cases.</strong>
Fix: If passed a string longer than the maximum allowed for a user name,
getpwnam will incorrectly return an entry for a user that matches the
initial characters in the string up to the maximum length allowed for a
user name. To correct this behaviour, libc needs to be patched and
recompiled. The appropriate patch can be obtained from:
