[Users] tracking down problems adding permanent usrloc record

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Mike,

the problem should be solved - I just committed on devel branch 
configurable management for types of aliases. You may enable/disable the 
usrloc aliases (UL_ALIASES) or database aliases (DB_ALIASES).

The control is done via env variables ENABLE_UL_ALIASES and 
ENABLE_DB_ALIASES (or internal vars)
which may be set to zero (disable) or non zero (enable).
Default only ENABLE_DB_ALIASES is enabled.

So if you keep ENABLE_UL_ALIASES=0 you do not need to put the dummy 
lookup("aliases") in your script.

regards,
bogdan
