The changes I made were from an older hesiod distribution I obtained
when I first started working on nsswitch (a couple of years ago, whilst
working with Simon), and they were mainly a bit of KNF and fixing a
couple of memory leaks, etc.
I'll look at the newer distribution, because that is probably the best
way to go (and liaise with yourself, Simon, and Charles iff necessary).
