Yeah, it is. My suggestion is to wait 24 hours for someone on this list
more knowledgeable than I (which is just about anyone) to speak up, and if
no one does then please file the PR, and forward me a copy of the notice
after the number is assigned. I'll then poke around for some NIS-aware
folks to review further before we commit it.
BTW, since this is a non-trivial change, and since I'm not familiar with
NIS, I'm not anticipating getting this in before the 7.0 or 6.3 -RELEASEs.
I would rather get some review for it now, and put it in HEAD for a while.
Then I'll MFC it after the releases.
