Regarding https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=27640 :

Hello Wolfgang,

What type of system is this? You are saying "Linux From Scratch version 8.0".
What type of libc is it using? There are several competing ones [1].

Please run the 'test-getlogin' program with ltrace (or, alternatively,
insert printf statements that show what's going on). I get (in a regular
login, or with sudo):

$ ltrace ./test-getlogin
__libc_start_main(0x400b46, 1, 0x7ffef8724a78, 0x403db0 <unfinished ...>
getlogin()                                                                                       = "bruno"
ttyname(0)                                                                                       = "/dev/pts/13"
__xstat(1, "/dev/pts/13", 0x7ffef87248f0)                                                        = 0
getpwuid(1000, 0x7ffef87248f0, 0x7ffef87248f0, 0x7f3d50d1abb5)                                   = 0x7f3d50feadc0
strcmp("bruno", "bruno")                                                                         = 0
+++ exited (status 0) +++

What are the results for you?

What else, that affects the operation of getlogin(), ttyname(), getpwuid(),
could be special in your environment?

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Looking at that test's source code, the test was clearly incorrect for 
Unix-like systems, as it incorrectly assumed a 1-1 mapping between user 
names and user IDs. I fixed that in Gnulib by installing the attached 
patch. Wolfgang, could you please try this on your Linux from Scratch 
system? You can do that by downloading these two files:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/plain/tests/test-getlogin.c
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/plain/tests/test-getlogin_r.c

Use the first to replace the existing test-getlogin.c in your coreutils 
source directory, and put the second next to the first.

Pushed to gnulib here:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=24605b2f03bfa8367a9149835c687c9073aacc2c

So closing as "fixed".
