Well, these scripts are completely Darwin-specific (they use NetInfo, 
not /etc/passwd). Any other OS would have better luck starting from 
sysutils/user instead.

I was originally planning to merge this into sysutils/user, but they're 
completely different (sysutils/user downloads a tarball, builds 
binaries, and installs them, whereas sysutils/user_darwin just installs 
shell scripts from the files/ dir), so it would have just been a mess.
