the 1003.1-2001 Thread Safe Functions (TSF) getgrnam_r(3) and getpwnam_r(3).
These are not implemented in sysctl(3) "user.*", since that adds a lot
of complexity in the implementation for no real benefit.
The cast just stops gcc detecting places where the functions are
passed a 'char' variable - and will index off the array for byte values
0x80 to 0xff.
All (I hope) of the places in the netbsd sources where this was a
potential problem have had an (unsigned char) cast applied.
Christos said he'll fix any fallout I've missed.
methods use va_list in a manner that is directly related to the public API.
This makes it much easier to write dynamic nsswitch backends for getpwent(3).
Per my proposal on tech-userlevel.
Implement getpwgid_r() and getpwnam_r() APIs per the POSIX 1003.1, 2004 Ed.
These aren't fully reentrant or threadsafe yet, because the compat stuff
currently uses non-reentrant data sources (getnetgrent(3), getpwent(3)),
and there is probably some locking to be improved in the backends.
This will be fixed in the near future.
We also need to add _SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX to sysconf(3).
Fix the compat `+' prototype override so getpwnam(3) and getpwuid(3) DTRT.
Improve the description of pw_class and pw_gecos.

and add "errbuf" and "errbufsz" parameters so that errors can be handled
gracefully, rather than simply exiting the process.
- Add a pw_copy() wrapper around pw_copyx() to preserve old behavior for
apps that use it.
- Bump shlib version to 7.4.
Adapted from FreeBSD. Maintains full backward API / ABI compatbility
with built-in-only nsdispatch().
While here, also make nsdispatch() itself thread-safe.
_NETBSD_SOURCE as this makes cross building from older/newer versions of
NetBSD harder, not easier (and also makes the resulting tools 'different')
Wrap all required code with the inclusion of nbtool_config.h, attempt to
only use POSIX code in all places (or when reasonable test w. configure and
provide definitions: ala u_int, etc).

in PR lib/25627; originally prompted to work around problems with
an application but also fixing one important bug: per POSIX, these
functions may be additionally implemented as macros, iff they evaluate
their macros only once. This was not the case.
In XNS5, and subsequently in POSIX-2001 it was changed to socklen_t.
To accomodate for this while preserving binary compatibility with the
old interface, prepend or append 32 bits of padding, depending on
the (LP64 data model) architecture's endianness. Fixes PR
