Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

dp that opens the database with PERM_INSECURE, so we need to check sdp->put
against sdp instead of use dp->put.

temporary file is created and then a rename() call move it to official file.
This operation didn't have any check to make sure data was written to disk
and if a power cycle happens system could end up with a 0 length passwd
or group database.
There is a pfSense bug with more infor about it:
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4523
The following changes were made to protect passwd and group operations:
* lib/libutil/gr_util.c:
- Replace mkstemp() by mkostemp() with O_SYNC flag to create temp file
- After rename(), fsync() call on directory for faster result
* lib/libutil/pw_util.c
- Replace mkstemp() by mkostemp() with O_SYNC flag to create temp file
* usr.sbin/pwd_mkdb/pwd_mkdb.c
- Added O_SYNC flag on dbopen() calls
- After rename(), fsync() call on directory for faster result
* lib/libutil/pw_util.3
- pw_lock() returns a file descriptor to master password file on success

The base system have been using the new format for quite some time,
so disable the generation by default.
An interim option, -l, have been added to re-enable old behavior.
The -l, -B and -L options are considered deprecated and will be
removed in FreeBSD 12.0 release.

asked to verify a passwd file (pwd_mkdb -C).
Entries with oversized usernames are still permitted when building
the passwd database.
When entries are >= MAXLOGNAME in length, they are correctly stored
in passwd, pwd.db and spwd.db but are only correctly retrieved by
getpwent*() and getpwuid*(). getpwnam*() truncates to MAXLOGNAME - 1
when reading from a file (breaking at least sh, tcsh and bash)
and utilities such as su(1) check, complain and fail if the
passed name is >= MAXLOGNAME in length.

change uses fgetln to detect the right conditions, but the fixed-width
line buffer is kept because too many other places in the program make
assumptions about its maximum width.

While version 4 entries are architecture-independent, we
also store old (version 3) entries in native byte order.
Also, the hash itself is created in a native byte order.
With this change, pwd_mkdb(8) can be used to cross-build
*pwd.db files for another architecture.

custom releases over NFS where locking may be unreliable at best and
there is no contention that the locking is designed to arbitrate.
Other uses of this flag are discouraged. Document same in usage and

ls sorts its args).

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).

. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr

there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.
