>Description:
/var/yp/Makefile creates a map named "shells.list" while
src/lib/libc/gen/getusershell.c expects the name to be just "shells"
>How-To-Repeat:
Configure a NIS client, put "shells: nis" into /etc/nsswitch.conf .
Any program using getusershell() will return a default list of shells
instead of the contents of the relevant NIS map.
>Fix:
The relevant map on the NIS server should be called "shells", not
"shells.list".
I suggest changing the Makefile:

Symlinking /var/yp/`domainname`/shells to /var/yp/`domainname`/shells.list
works also as a workaround.
