Hi,

just a minor thing. The userdel(8) usage and manual says the -p option
only needs the preserve-value when -D is given. However, a "true"
value seems to be required regardless:

# userdel -p josefine
usage: userdel -D [-p preserve-value]
       userdel [-prv] user
# grep josefine /etc/master.passwd
josefine:$2a$06$DW[...]:1001:10::0:0::/home/josefine:/bin/ksh
# userdel -p true josefine
# grep josefine /etc/master.passwd
josefine:*************:1001:10::0:0::/home/josefine:/sbin/nologin

Not sure whether it's a documentation error or if the code in user.c
is at fault. The above is from version 4.9 and I haven't found any
changes in CVS since.

Anyway, merry Christmas folks!
