Bug #593479: Ensure not to accidentally delete our main account file.

Browse Source 
Original patch by Tim Retout who writes:

strptime is passed (name + pathlen + 1) as the string to search.  However, when
looking at the main account file, strlen(name) == pathlen, so strptime is
looking at the point just past the end of name.

Sometimes this will be parseable by strptime, and this leads to the account
file being unlinked.
