freebsd stable - Apr 2006 - ypwhich -m

Hi,

I found that ypwhich -m does not work on 6.1-RC, it shows

ypwhich: can't find the master of `?`: reason: No such map in server's
domain

IIRC, there was a commit last year to fix this. After some search, I think
it is include/rpcsvc/yp_prot.h revision 1.13 done by peter@ (CC'ed).
As far as I can tell, ypwhich -m is also broken on 5.4 and 5.5-PRERELEASE.

I have tested that revision on a 5.5-PRERELEASE machine, it
fixes ypwhich -m. I would like to see this MFC'ed to RELENG_6
and RELENG_5, so the newer releases will have this fixed.

Thanks,
Rong-En Fan

I've verified this on a 6-STABLE machine from January.  If approved,
I'll do it tomorrow cut-n-paste damanged patch below.  It's a trivial
one line change so anyone could do it.
