[Pianod] select_nobody_user bug in pianod-150?

[Perette Barella]

Uninitialized variable—sweet.  Good find, Gary, thanks.  r151 is in SVN; I’m building a release now.  This is sufficiently bad and sufficiently small I’m going to make it a general release.

It would alternatively display “select_nobody_user: calloc” or “select_nobody_user: realloc” messages and exit.  I did some debugging, and figured out that the requested size passed to realloc and calloc (nobody_groups_size) was obviously wrong - very large, and often negative.  I changed line 83 of src/settings.c to initialize nobody_groups_size to 0 and the problems went away.
