Just like bin/ and sbin/, I think setting WARNS to the highest value
possible will make it more attractive for people to fix warnings.
- The WARNS variable is set in the Makefile in the directory of the
application itself, making it more likely that it will be removed out
of curiosity to see what happens.
- New applications will most likely build with WARNS=6 out of the box,
because the author would more likely fix the warnings during
development than lower WARNS.
Unfortunately almost all apps in libexec require a lowered value of
WARNS.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
program parses the /etc/netgroup file into netgroup.byuser and netgroup.byhost
format for NIS.
I used hash tables to store the initial netgroup data in memory and to
construct the 'reverse' netgroup output. It seems just as fast as the
SunOS revnetgroup, which is surprising considering this is my first
attempt at using hash tables in a real application. :)
Note that I canibalized a large chunk of getnetgrent.c to save myself
from having to write my own netgroup parsing functions.
