getpwnam_error.c:

 * The memory hole can be fixed with two different approaches

 1) Change /etc/nsswitch.conf: passwd: compat to passwd: files
 2) LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libnss_compat.so.2 valgrind ./getpwnam_error

    GLIBC loads libnss_compat on the fly and unloads it.

    Thanks to telexicon for reporting this...
