Unable to build 1.4.2 on FreeBSD

[Vladimir Terziev]

	I found the answer. It's not good for me, but it's an answer :(

	FreeBSD 4.x do not have the re-entrant version of getpwuid (e.g. getpwuid_r). FreeBSD 5.x has it, but not 4.x.

	I managed to workaround it. Including stdio.h explicitly in import_name.c solves the problem.

	Thanks for the help!
