978ffdbaa9 s/insure/ensure/ in previous commit. My dictionary and m-w.com say they
are synonymous, but ensure seems slightly closer and does not have the
connotation of buying insurance.

f9eaa746eb Make mppath and masterpasswd pointers instead of arrays, and initialize
them to point at static strings that contain the default paths.  This
makes 'vipw -d' work again (I broke it in rev 1.21; apologies for taking
so long to fix it.)

9a602acc36 Replace the -q option to pwd_mkdb with a test for PW_SCAN_BIG_IDS in
the environment.  This allows big ID warnings to be suppressed for
vipw and chpass as well.

Since the environment variable test is only performed for callers
of pw_scan() that do not set pw_big_ids_warning, the test can still
be overriden.  Currently, chpass and pwd_mkdb are the only users
of pw_scan() and neither of them overrides the environment variable
test.

414a35e60a Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The Id line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

2ece3ed4c8 Force umask to 077 (instead of 000) during the edit phase, to get
secure permissions in case the user attempts to save something to
a file of his own.

Move umask stuff out of pw_init() into main() for better visibility
of overall umask tweaking logic.

1fd98d7d88 Calls one or more of malloc(), warn(), err(), syslog(), execlp() or
execvp() in the child branch of a vfork(). Changed to use fork()
instead.

Some of these (mv, find, apply, xargs) might benefit greatly from
being rewritten to use vfork() properly.

79a1b8d9e2 Implement incremental passwd database updates. This is done by ading a '-u'
option to pwd_mkdb and adding this option to utilities invoking it.
Further, the filling of both the secure and insecure databases has been
merged into one loop giving also a performance improvemnet.
Note that I did *not* change the adduser command. I don't read perl
(it is a write only language anyway).
The change will drastically improve performance for passwd and
friends with large passwd files. Vipw's performance won't change.
In order to do that some kind of diff should be made between the
old and new master.passwd and depending the amount of changes, an
incremental or complete update of the databases should be agreed
upon.

d877befa37 Small NIS tweak: frob pw_error() a little so that it can say either
'NIS information unchanged' or '/etc/master.passwd unchanged'
depending on which was is being modified (conditional on -DYP).

This is to save me the trouble of writing a whole other error
routine (nis_error()?) for the upcoming changes to passwd and
chpass.
