   Log:
   Inconsistent format of lines in /usr/ports/UIDs
   
           I notice that a few of the entries in /usr/ports/UIDs are formatted
           like lines from /etc/master.passwd, whilst the majority look like
           lines from /etc/passwd -- ie. without the 'class', 'change' and
           'expire' fields.  'change' and 'expire' are not particularly useful
           for these sort of passwordless pseudo-user accounts, but I can see
           where being able to assign a UID to a login class would be handy.
   
           However, none of the entries in /usr/ports/UIDs make any attempt to
           assign the UID to anything other than the default class and none of
           them have any capability I can see to eg. limit system resource usage
           So I guess there's no need for login class information in
           /usr/ports/UIDs
