and "group_compat": if we find "+" in /etc/services, we'll substitute it
with information received from the "services_compat" database's source.
Now that searching through a large /etc/services file is no longer a
performance bottleneck, I intend to merge most of IANA's port assignment
list into our /etc/services some time in mid-May.
If anyone objects to this, please let me know now.
Would it be wise to wait until cached is enabled by default?
