* [Bug libc/1939] New: int return instead of enum value in inet/getnetgrent_r.c

In the file inet/getnetgrent_r.c in function setup() at line 57 there is the 
following block: 
 
  else if (startp == (service_user *) -1)  
    /* No services at all.  */  
    return 1;  
  else  
 
Now I wonder what "1" stands for; according to nss/nss.h "1" stands for 
NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS. But NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL seems to be the right thing IMHO. 
At least returning an integer value instead of enum value is not clean.

The type of no_more in this function should be enum, too.

Is it possible to change the return value of DB_LOOKUP_FCT in 
nss/XXX-lookup.c 
to enum nss_status? Currently it is int.

This has nothing to do with nss.h and the meaning is clearly defined in the
comment for this function.

This does not make sense at all. This function does not return
nss_status values, it returns if there is a service or not.
