#32685: RealName account attribute missing from macports account

If you run /System/Library/CoreServices/Directory\ Utility and look at the
"macports" account, you will notice that unlike every other account, this
account is missing the "RealName" attribute. This causes interesting
things with the buggy OSX Lion SMB server which shows a mysterious blank
account has access to your file shares which you can not disable. The
work around is to manually edit the account with "Directory\ Utility" and
add RealName to something like "Mac Ports".
After that, to disable "macports" access to the shares, you need to set a
password for the account to something random because you can't disable
access w/o the password! Go figure...
