>Description:
	The passwd.5 man page describes what * in the password field for the
	passwd file means, but not for master.passwd, which turns out to use
	* for a very different (and good) purpose.
>How-To-Repeat:
	man 5 master.passwd
>Fix:
	At the end of the paragraph that begins "The password field is the
	encrypted form...", add:

	In the master.passwd file, a password of "*" is used to indicate that no
	one can ever log into that account. The field only contains encrypted
	passwords, and "*" can never be the result of encrypting a password.
