Eelco Dolstra c089738bdc * Use the shadow' package instead of pwdutils', `pam_login' and
`su'.
* The `usermod' from `shadow' allows setting a supplementary group
  equal to the user's primary group, so the special hack for the
  `nixbld' group is no longer needed.
* Removed /etc/default/passwd since it's not used by the new passwd.
  The hash is configured in pam_unix.
* Move some values for `security.setuidPrograms' and
  `security.pam.services' to the appropriate modules.
