Huh?
The question was about chfn(1) here...:
beforeinstall:
[ ! -e ${DESTDIR}${BINDIR}/chpass ] || \
chflags noschg ${DESTDIR}${BINDIR}/chpass
afterinstall:
chflags schg ${DESTDIR}${BINDIR}/chpass
Well, there are two reasons why i think this could fail:
o somebody has raised kern.securelevel (e.g. with sysctl(8))
o somebody broke the hard link between chfn and chpass, so the
above "chflags noschg" didn't alter chfn, only chpass

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
