We had code that supposed that some platforms might offer a nonstandard version of getpwuid_r() with only four arguments. However, the 5-argument definition has been standardized at least since the Single Unix Spec v2, which is our normal reference for what's portable across all Unix-oid platforms. (What's more, this wasn't the only pre-standardization version of getpwuid_r(); my old HPUX 10.20 box has still another signature.) So let's just get rid of the now-useless configure step.
