I've just checked a Fedora VM, and it seems to only enable mymachines
for hosts (as we do in Debian):

# grep mymachines /etc/nsswitch.conf
hosts:  files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns myhostname mymachines


Now I wonder whether the upstream docs are correct on this matter and we
should actually enable it for passwd/group, or if the docs should be fixed.
