        In general, writers of authorization-granting applications should
        assume that each module is likely to call any or
        <span class="emphasis"><em>all</em></span> 'libc' functions. For 'libc' functions
        that return pointers to static/dynamically allocated structures
        (ie. the library allocates the memory and the user is not expected
        to '<code class="function">free()</code>' it) any module call to this
        function is likely to corrupt a pointer previously
        obtained by the application. The application programmer should
        either re-call such a 'libc' function after a call to the
        <span class="emphasis"><em>Linux-PAM</em></span> library, or copy the
        structure contents to some safe area of memory before passing
        control to the <span class="emphasis"><em>Linux-PAM</em></span> library.
      </p><p>
        Two important function classes that fall into this category are
        <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">getpwnam</span>(3)</span> and <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">syslog</span>(3)</span>.
