It's fine with me if it ends up being maintained by the glibc team
eventually; I just need unscd now becauser nscd being so hideous is
causing me no end of grief.
It is a separate upstream, though, so it should be separate from glibc
source-wise. I do plan on making it so that it can easily be installed
in place of nscd.
