My take on this bug:  Since '+' is the known NIS cookie, and the getpw*()
routines properly understand this and never pass it to a calling program,
and its 'password' is unusable in /etc/passwd (the V7 passwd file), I
believe this should be filtered from /etc/daily.

At best, /etc/daily should warn if user/group '+' exists and ypbind is not
running.

I'd be glad to fix this before release if this sounds reasonable.
