Symptoms:
	PHCO_27009:
	( SR:8606230616 CR:JAGad99666 )
	acctdusg(1m) without -u option, can dump core while

Defect Description:
	PHCO_27009:
	( SR:8606230616 CR:JAGad99666 )
	When acctdusg command accesses files whose owner is not the
	same as the user's home directory, it dumps core.
	The problem can be reproduced as follows:

	Create a file "files" with "./abc" as its contents.
	$ cat files
	./abc
	$id
	uid=202(vts) gid=60(ssgrp) groups=21(vts)
	Create a directory abc whose owner is root, group is
	sys, as shown below.
	$ls -l ./abc
	drwxrwxrwx   2 root    sys 96 Jul 12 08:10 abc
	Now run acctdusg on this directory
	$/usr/sbin/acct/acctdusg < files
	Bus Error(core dump)

	Resolution:
	The acctdusg(1m) command is modified to correct this
	problem.
