Document the callback API used by "standard" functions.
NOTE: some of these will be changing in the future to be more
consistent with the technique used in the group & passwd backends.
I'm just documenting the existing behaviour.

Be more consistent when using certain terms.
Rename some variables to reduce confusion.

# 1.22 29-Sep-2004 wiz

Fix a typo, fix an xref, an drop a space at EOL.


# 1.21 29-Sep-2004 lukem

Implement NS_FORCEALL, which may be set in defaults[0].flags by a caller of
nsdispatch(3) to indicate that all available database methods for a source
will be invoked. This is useful for functions such as endgrent(3).


# 1.20 28-Sep-2004 lukem

slight formatting tweaks


# 1.19 28-Sep-2004 lukem

s/foe/for/


# 1.18 27-Sep-2004 lukem

correct the va_list arg for nss_method


# 1.17 27-Jul-2004 wiz

Use \*[Lt]\*[Gt] or Aq instead of <>; sort SEE ALSO.


# 1.16 24-Jul-2004 thorpej

Add support for dynamically loading nsswitch modules on ELF platforms.
Adapted from FreeBSD. Maintains full backward API / ABI compatbility
with built-in-only nsdispatch().

While here, also make nsdispatch() itself thread-safe.

# 1.14 01-Jul-2003 wiz

Va Sq -> Sq Va so both work.


# 1.13 16-Apr-2003 wiz

Use
.In header.h
instead of
.Fd #include \*[Lt]header.h\*[Gt]
Much easier to read and write, and supported by groff for ages.
Okayed by ross.

nsdispatch isn't currently thread safe; highlight this as a bug

clarify that the lack of support for dynamic loading is only for callback funcs
