getpwnam_r is kept because you are linking against a shared libc that also
defines this symbol.  In this case the linker keeps your getpwnam_r, because it
is assumed you are defining a function to override the one in the shared lib. 
The linker can't know whether getpwnam_r is actually called, because there might
be a call from a dlopen'd library at runtime.
