A) Use this file at all?
   
   B) Support the 'compat' entries (the only major difference between the 
      tarball and the distributed file).


this is the default nsswitch.conf (ie, if none is present):

        group            compat
        group_compat     nis
        hosts            files dns
        netgroup         files [notfound=return] nis
        passwd           compat
        passwd_compat    nis

with the "files" backend being used for anything else.  i don't know
how compatible the "comapt" feature is with the linux implementation.
