    pwd_mkdb(8): Don't copy comments from /etc/master.passwd to /etc/passwd.
    
    The intention of /etc/passwd was to support legacy applications that are
    not yet converted to use modern API like getpwent(3). Comments are not
    defined in the legacy format, so copying them could break these
    applications. Plus, it could leak sensitive information (e.g. encrypted
    form of password of an user that was commented out instead of deleted
    or disabled).
