This is related to using bash-static as root's shell . As well as setting non root users login shell to bash-static .
The "I have no name" user name issue and the the getpwuid* calls failing have to do with the fact that bash-static can not load some library , but my memory is lost on the exact library and details . I wasted a bunch of time on this in 7.2-RELEASE and it took a while to debug this . Using a standard port of bash or any other shell resolved this for me .
