[PATCH] fixed return value check of sysoncf in get_name_from_passwd_file / get_username_from_passwd_file

[Matthias Guedemann]

When trying to port notmuch to DragonFlyBSD I found it core dumped
immediately. The reason was that the "sysconf(_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX)"
call returned -1 which is used for talloc memory allocation. The check
was there but was done _after_ the allocation, the attached patch fixes
this.

regards
Matthias
