To the OP, I suggest finding out what legitimately fails in the build when the user doesn't exist and patching the build system to suck less. When you're done, send your improvements upstream.
My suggestion would be to simply fail out if the user doesn't exist and have the user create the user himself. (Include the "sudo adduser something" that needs to be run in the error message for simplicity). AUR isn't supposed to be simple as in newbie-friendly but simple as in without cruft. Just my two cents. Allen
