There is no patch for this in attachments.

Patch is incorrect but correctly marks some class of code.
USE_NIS now marks dead code. I'm not remove this only because keep 
ponits where must be added NIS (and also LDAP) support.
Probably you want disable this only because some non-glibc libc 
implementation do not provides netgroup support. You must know netgroup 
it is not NIS specyfic feacture (on glibc it is fully supported even by 
files NSS module) so disable this id this way is incorrect.
Probably best way will be add check on autoconf level getgrnam() 
avalaibability and instead make this code USE_NIS dependent better will 
be use HAVE_GETGRNAM.

This must be solved in other way. I don't want have -n switch.
I have partially prepared fix for this but I'll commit this after release 
4.0.18.
