>Description:
	I wanted to create a crontab for the user 'apache', which is
	the user of the httpd on my site. Since the user doesn't have
	a valid shell or password, I logged in as 'root' and started
	crontab(1) with '-e -u apache'. Crontab did not create a tab
	file for the user 'apache', though but for the user 'apac' --
	which doesn't exist:

	| Jun 27 11:01:33 peti crontab[6180]: (root) BEGIN EDIT (apac)
	| Jun 27 11:01:35 peti crontab[6180]: (root) END EDIT (apac)

	When loggin in as 'apache' via su -m and simply doing 'crontab
	-e' it works fine.
