If (after upcasing and replacing hyphens by underscores) ACCT_USER_NAME is set to something that isn't valid in a bash variable name, the eclass will crash: it uses ACCT_USER_NAME to construct the make.conf override variables in pkg_pretend() and src_install().
This commit relocates the computation of the "override name" subsequent to the definition of ACCT_USER_NAME="${PN}". In Gentoo, policy prohibits redefinition of that variable; so nothing is changed. But in an overlay, this allows the ebuild to define ACCT_USER_NAME to something that would not be valid in a bash variable at the expense of violating expectations about the override variable names.
