System: NetBSD lestat 1.3A NetBSD 1.3A (LESTAT) #110: Tue Oct 28 18:45:38 PST 1997 thorpej@lestat:/tmp_mnt/dracul/u5/netbsd/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/LESTAT sparc


>Description:
	There isn't a common function in libc, libutil, or whatever to
	read a line that's been "continued" with \.

	This PR is meant only to make a note of this so that it can
	be addressed after the release of NetBSD 1.3.

>How-To-Repeat:
	N/A.

>Fix:
	Pull get_line() from netgroup_mkdb or read_line() from ypserv.
