setgrent, and endgrent also. (The previous NSS implementation used to
simply twiddle the internal data of the various modules directly.)

get set by one module, but not by another. Add another call to the
internal pwd_init function to accomplish this.

Correct a bug that should have wreaked havoc everywhere, but for
some reason only bit unlucky people who use `-march' optimizations.
The compiler cannot assist one in distinguishing between the two
function calls below.

cause trouble for applications. (The only likely example is `pw_class',
because this field is not used by all modules in all cases.)

arbitrary size limits when using the thread-safe versions.
= Re-implement the traditional getpwent(3)/getgrent(3) functions on
top of the thread-safe versions.
= Update the on-disk format of the hashed version of the passwd(5)
databases to allow for versioned entries. The legacy version is
`3'. (Don't ask.)
= Add support for version `4' entries in the passwd(5) database.
Entries in this format are identical to version 3 entries except
that all integers are stored as 32-bit integers in network byte
order (big endian).
= pwd_mkdb is updated to generate both version 3 and version 4
entries.

at configuration time (i.e. when nsdispatch is called and nsswitch.conf

o Add C99 macro fpclassify() which calls __fpclassify{d,f,l}() based

alpha because (sizeof(long double) == sizeof(double)), which is good
since __fpclassifyl() can't deal with such a small `long double'.
