Comment(by brian.gupta@…):

 /etc/passwd is a legecy file that won't have a user's entry in it. From:
 http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/DOCUMENTATION/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man5/passwd.5.html

 "The /etc/passwd file is a legacy BSD 4.3 format file.  It is mostly
 unused, but is updated by some utility programs.  Its format is similar to
 the /etc/master.passwd file, except that it does not con-tain containtain
 the class, change, and expire fields described below."

 Thus we do need to either use the getent I provided, or we need to
 succesfully push changes to support Mac OS-X dscl upstream. (into the
 Debian project).

 Cheers,
 Brian
