Passwd-Unix (0.52) *

No tests. No detailed error status, only true/false (yes, there is a 'warnings' parameter on constructor, but this doesn't give out warnings on all operations, only some). No locking (although there is backup, but still).

Also, some weird choices, why use bzip2 when creating backup? Or, why still require running as root (checking $() if we are allowing custom database file location?

Between this and Unix::ConfigFile, I'm seriously considering using Unix commands instead (useradd, userdel, gpasswd, et al).
