Yes. You are right. Please have a look at the applied patch.
If the zero-termination is needed, numstr is copied to the buffer with 
strncpy and the zero-termination is applied.
If numstr is either 0 bytes long or the length of the numstr string is 
0, then _nss_nisplus_parse_pwent returns with 0.


This solves the mentioned warning with if build with gcc-head and 
--enable-obsolete-nsl.
But I can not test it as I don't have a nisplus setup.

Bye.
Stefan
