Quote from my mail to the ml: "The rest (passwd.c and sulogin.c) is not 
ported yet .. volunteers ;) ?" 
... so not really lost -- just not done yet

Another quote: "Part *I* of tinylogin integration. So far su.c and login.c 
have been ported by me (ported is the wrong word -- they have been nearly 
*rewritten*)"
... so IMHO it would not be realistic if I got everything right from the 
start (although this happens sometimes ;) )

BTW: Where is your problem with the 'const char *username' -- I don't see any 
functional difference ?
