 Yes, i vote for this one!  Since you provide a patch, i just want to say
 that if the `getent' command finally reach the FreeBSD tree, my old PR
 bin/79903 requesting this particular inclusion (but without a patch) may
 be closed too.  FYI, the proposed modifications seems ok on both RELENG_6
 and -CURRENT machines (tested in a local[1] environment).  Thank you very
 much, Dan.
