When changing the current user's full name, kcm_useraccount hangs.

Reproducible: Always

1. Start kcm_useraccount, either via systemsettings or terminal
2. Make modification to the 'name' field
3. Select apply, and enter password when requested
Actual Results:  
Real name is changed, but kcm_useraccount hangs.

Expected Results:  
No hang.

chfn is from shadow-4.1.5, with CHFN_RESTRICT frwh.

Backtrace

Looking at the backtrace, it appears the hang may be the result of a blocking readLine, perhaps because chfn already terminated, or because running chfn -f manually does not produce any output on success.
