Subject: [PATCH] For some reason, the old login class code didn't seem to be
 working here. I suspect it was because the child exec code's parent was doing
 the initial lookups, then forking, then doing other things (possibly trashing
 the static data in the getpw*() buffer), then attempting to dereference *pwd
 and *lc.  Also, no error checking appeared to be done - I've allowed it to
 fall back to the old "become user" code on critical failure rather than risk
 running a user's cron jobs as root.
