>Description:
	I have a netgroup file that is generated somewhere else by ORACLE, when
	I try to feed it through netgroup_mkdb it chokes - it appears to alloc
	all the memory available then fail.
	Bit much on a machine with over 100Mb free virtual memory :)

>How-To-Repeat:
	run netgroup_mkdb /etc/netgroup with the below file.
	On a 16Mb(ram) + 96Mb(free swap) sun4/300 the entire machine goes
	away for 20 odd seconds (wont respond to rup etc) and I get
	netgroup_mkdb: seq: Cannot allocate memory
