    ptuser: avoid implementation-defined behavior in CreateIdList()
    
    CreateIdList() is an internal subroutine of pr_IDListExpandedMembers(),
    used to flatten a hash table of protection IDs into an array that can
    be passed to pr_IdToName().  If for some reason the hash table had no
    entries, it would call malloc(0) and, depending on how the
    the implementation defines this, either return a PRNOMEM error (wrong!)
    or else allocate a minimum-sized buffer which pr_IdListExpandedMembers
    would then promptly leak.  Compromise between the two behaviors by
    not allocating any memory in this case but returning success, and in
    the caller check for an empty list and avoid the pointless RPC to
    translate no IDs into no names.  pr_IDListExpandedMembers() will return
    success, as it previously did in the non-PRNOMEM case.
