In src/port, we have in threads.c:

/** Wrapper around getpwuid() or getpwuid_r() to mimic POSIX getpwuid_r()* behaviour, if it is not available.*/
int
pqGetpwuid(uid_t uid, struct passwd * resultbuf, char *buffer,                  size_t buflen, struct passwd **
result)
{
#if defined(USE_THREADS) && defined(HAVE_GETPWUID_R)
       /*        * broken (well early POSIX draft) getpwuid_r() which returns 
'struct        * passwd *'        */       *result = getpwuid_r(uid, resultbuf, buffer, buflen);
#else       /* no getpwuid_r() available, just use getpwuid() */       *result = getpwuid(uid);
#endif       return (*result == NULL) ? -1 : 0;
}


Which BREAKS if you have the correct getpwuid_r() like UnixWare does.

Can someone help me with the configure checks/macros I need?
$ grep getpwuid_r /usr/include/pwd.h
int getpwuid_r(uid_t, struct passwd *, char *, size_t, struct passwd **);
$

Actually, your getpwuid_r is the old, pre-POSIX format.  The attached
email has the configure tests.  I was hoping we wouldn't need them, but
it seems we may.

Err, SCO claims SUSv2, the Single Unix Specification Version 2.  V3 
**JUST** came
out.

I'll look at Lee's stuff.

No, his is the right POSIX/SUS variant.

I've not been keeping up with the thread re who has what version of
getpwuid_r... But just to clarify things the "right" version is:
int getpwuid_r(uid_t uid, struct passwd *pwd, char *buffer,               size_t bufsize, struct passwd **result); 

documented at:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/getpwuid.html

My email to Bruce which he tacked onto his reply is a good summary of
the current problems with the thread stuff.

Ok.  Lee: Did you see the patch I posted?   Can you help on the configure 
test(s)
needed to set HAVE_POSIX_GETPWUID_R?

I **THINK** I did the patch right to handle it if it's set.  I forced it 
for UnixWare
and it seems to work.

Larry, haven't managed to look at that patch... But stuffed for time
just now - just about to head off for the weekend. I'm hoping to spend
a bit of time on this on Tuesday! So, i'll see how things have
progressed then.

Of course, I was wrong.  In fact, the patch below actually said it was
the pre-POSIX version of getpwuid_r().
