That would resolve the UID the same each time, even though incorrectly. So it would result in a more systematic error rather than the intermittent issue Josh is having I would say.

Not to discount the SMP hypothesis, but do you possibly have a password database that uses uid's > 65535?
If there's some application in the chain that is assuming uid's should be a short, and another app in the chain assumes that uid's should be an int... Then when mapping int to short, you might lose the upper bits - which should only matter for uid's >= 65536.
