Subject: Bug 16727: Handle ERANGE for getgr; fixes user in many groups
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

	Patch originally from Noèl Köthe.
	Modified by Colin Walters <walters@verbum.org>

	* dbus/dbus-sysdeps-unix.c, dbus/dbus-sysdeps-unix-utils.c:
	Use a while() loop to reallocate buffer if we get ERANGE
	return.  This fixes the case where a user is in a large
	number of groups.
