[issue6873] posix_lchown: possible overflow of uid, gid

Gregory,

I discovered this bug by static analysis, so I do not have a system 
that this bug is actually triggered. But I am happy to see the fix 
applied since this makes code safer. It would be great if anyone could 
write a test case that cause uid and gid to overflow, then use the test 
case as a regression test on the fix.

Boya
