is a digit.

9fb99cddfc -Clarification of last commit-
The char that the random letters and numbers are being pulled from is
ended with a '\0'. Using sizeof() includes this '\0' in the 'pool' of
possible characters. This patch decrements by one the size so we don't
accidently end the new password prematurly.

5d1711220c Let's make sure we're at the end of the password string before we apply a \0
and terminate it. This patch ensures passwords will be the correct length of 8,
which is what is implied in the source (but not reflected in the man page).

5e91a8ac91 - On second thought, attempt to get the read-only lock, but don't
consider it a exit failure if it doesn't work.  This means that root
  processes can safely get the lock, but normal processes can still use
  the 'pw' utility to get information (which may change out from under
  them.)

2a6797aae2 - Removed read-only lock from 'pw'. This removes portions of the FIX
from PR/6787, but allow non-root users to use pw to get password
  information.  However, this should be safe since the fixes for
  disallowing multiple instances from modifying the DB are still intact.

73375325b1 Fix race condition in pw caused by multiple instances of pwd_mkdb being
run at the same time.

Notes:
    The fileupdate function is still somewhat broken.  Instead of
    returning a failure code if it can't modify the original file it
    renames the .new file and continues as though nothing is wrong.
    This will cause the lock on the original file to be lost and could
    lead to a similar race condition.  I left that portion of the code
    alone since I feel that the maintainer of the code would have a
    better concept of how he wants to handle errors in that function
    than I do.
