commit c44496df2f090a56d3bf75df930592dac6bba46f

    Provide correct buffer length to netgroup queries in nscd (BZ #16695)

    The buffer to query netgroup entries is allocated sufficient space for
    the netgroup entries and the key to be appended at the end, but it
    sends in an incorrect available length to the NSS netgroup query
    functions, resulting in overflow of the buffer in some special cases.
    The fix here is to factor in the key length when sending the available
    buffer and buffer length to the query functions.
