Log message:
        Use of system getpwuid() in many places of the code
        actually broke mu_getpwnam() pardigm. To fix it,
        a wrapper function, mu_getpwuid(), is introduced.
        It allows to use 'overloaded' getpwuid calls. In the
        simplest case, it boils down to calling getpuid().
        Applications, registering getpwname function by using
        mu_register_getpwname() are expected to register its
        getpwuid counterpart by using mu_register_getpwname().
        "Virtual domains" (mutil.c:407) seem to be an exception:
        there is no easy way to create appropriate getpwuid()
        function. This does not break the virtual domain
        functionality, however.
