NSS not longer exporting parser

NSS not longer exporting parser

[Thorsten Kukuk]

Hi,

the libnss_files.so.2 library does not export any longer the parsers.
All Parsers are now "GLIBC_PRIVATE". 

As result, most other NSS modules (even the one from glibc), which
uses the files parser, does not work any longer.

Is the current solution really to duplicate the functions for every
NSS module?

Which NSS module doesn't work?  All modules from glibc are linked
against the new NSS DSOs and therefore should pick up the GLIBC_PRIVATE
symbols and record the version.  No other module should use these
parsers so GLIBC_PRIVATE is exactly the right version.

For example the libnss_db module, which we splitt of from glibc.

If was released for 2.2 again.  There is no harm in requiring somebody
to install a new binary.
