Bug#204682: Acknowledgement (glibc: su - segfaults, loggin in as root also fails. sudo works)

[Jurriaan <thunder7@xs4all.nl>]

my /etc/nsswitch.conf (which I believe to be a totally default file;
I've never changed anything in it)

# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.
