I won't be adding one for reasons already discussed on the list list
back in August (I think you started that thread, too, Richard)--- in
short I do not think it is needed and could even be harmful (if people
copy it to /etc/nsswitch.conf).

But, if someone has a set of *good* example configurations and they
are installed in share/examples/etc/nsswitch.conf.${description},
I certainly would not object. (e.g. nsswitch.conf.hesiod,
nsswitch.conf.ldap, and so on)
