>Description:
Two additional comments were added for the NO_NIS variable in src/share/examples/etc/make.conf.  The author of these changes placed two tabs before the comment deliminator(#).  When this file is copied to /etc/make.conf, it causes make to report that it can't execute "# If set, you might need to adopt your" and "# nsswitch.conf(5) and remove `nis' entries."  Make expects the comment deliminator to be in the first column.

I know that some are going to say don't copy the file to /etc/make.conf, but at the top of the file it says:

# This file must be in valid Makefile syntax.

placing two tabs before the comment deliminator is not valid Makefile syntax.

>How-To-Repeat:
copy src/share/examples/etc/make.conf to /etc/make.conf
then try a buildworld
>Fix:
Index: make.conf
