getpwuid_r is the re-entrant version of getpwuid.  You may need
this in threaded applications.  getpwuid_r is available on modern
versions of Solaris, isn't there on OpenBSD and presumably isn't
there on FreeBSD.

However I'm not sure that things are as simple as getpwuid_r being
(quite rightly) undefined.  At first glance the code in krb5-1.4.2
doesn't look much different to the code in krb5-1.4.1.  And I didn't
see this problem with krb5-1.4.1.
