Currently, ypserv dumps core while replying to a ypproc_master request if
access is being denied to the remote host. This results from xdr_string()
not being designed to handle NULL strings. There seem to be vestiges of an
attempt to represent a NULL string by a size of -1, but this could be my
imagination. Looks like ypserv and rpc.yppasswdd need to adjusted to the
limitations of xdr.
