This is a shot in the dark, but by any chance is this repository
owned by nobody, which is mapped to "Unprivileged User" by
/etc/passwd?  Googling for "Unprivileged User" and "getpwent"
tells me that on OSX boxes nobody seems to map to that Gecos
name.

To explicitly set the names of list of projects and their
owners, set up $projects_list text file.  A hint for its format
is found around line 1111 in gitweb/gitweb.perl script.

Hopefully somebody has documentation for gitweb configuration
so that people do not have to refer to the source to find things
out, but I do not know of a URL offhand...
