Either that, or as someone stated, comment all 4 entries out, with a
big PROBLEM before them.  At least this way those who have become
confromant dont now fall over because FreeBSD is non-conformant.  I
can live with that.  I can not live with the blantant error, as that
means I now get to patch FreeBSD's services file through out 2 AS's
(about 40+ boxes, and growing daily.)
