+       * lib/idcache.c: Restore most of the 2006-11-06 patch, so as to
+       continue using the flexible array member (thus, this module performs
+       half as many malloc calls), with the addition that...
+       (getgroup, getuser): Consistently record a non-match via an empty
+       "name" string, and map an empty string match to a NULL return value.
+       * modules/idcache (Depends-on): Re-add flexmember.
+
        * lib/idcache.c (getuser): Remove all uses of the register keyword.
        (getuidbyname, getgroup, getgidbyname): Likewise.
