unless (1) the @ isn't quoted and (2) the filename isn't empty. This guards against unexpectedly treating usernames or other strings in "flat files" as inclusion requests, as seen in a recent trouble report from Ed L. The empty-filename case would be guaranteed to misbehave anyway, because our subsequent path-munging behavior results in trying to read the directory containing the current input file. I think this might finally explain the report at http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2004-05/msg00132.php of a crash after printing "authentication file token too long, skipping", since I was able to duplicate that message (though not a crash) on a platform where stdio doesn't refuse to read directories. We never got far in investigating that problem, but now I'm suspicious that the trigger condition was an @ in the flat password file. Back-patch to all active branches since the problem can be demonstrated in all branches except HEAD. The test case, creating a user named "@", doesn't cause a problem in HEAD since we got rid of the flat password file. Nonetheless it seems like a good idea to not consider quoted @ as a file inclusion spec, so I changed HEAD too.
