Log:
NIS+ compatibility kludge. A long time ago, I set up innetgr() so
that if searching through the special netgroup.byhost or netgroup.byuser
maps didn't work, we would roll over to the 'slow' method of grovelling
though the netgroup map and working out the dependencies on the fly.
But I left this option hidden inside an #ifdef CHARITABLE since I
didn't think I'd ever need it.
Well, the Sun rpc.nisd NIS+ server in YP compat mode doesn't support
the .byhost and .byuser reverse maps, so the failover is necessary
in order to be compatible. *sigh*
This closes PR #3891, and should be merged into RELENG_2_2.
