Given that and what you say on IRC I'll have a look soon.  I'm very wary
of anything to do with this transition due to the multiple issues with
it.

Please confirm this with the amd64 porters.  This whole transitions has
been plagued with problems; the predepency was added due to breakage in
the original transition plan.  I'm not going to do anything with this
without confirmation, this transition has been nothing but trouble.

daemon maintians state in this directory which tells applications that
need to get information from the NIS server where to look.  Everything
else works over the network.

You shouldn't need to update nsswitch.conf for normal password access.
