in FreeBSD's port of this nsswitch code:
- Don't ignore unknown characters. The old lexer would treat
hosts:!!!!!!!!@@@@@$%^&*()()*$(files{}{}|||++!)(dns
exactly the same as
hosts: files dns
- Recover from errors by looking for the end of a line. This means
that having a syntax error near the top of the file doesn't prevent
a service at the bottom of the file with no syntax error from being
looked up.
Thanks Bill!
