It seems like a better idea to use /etc/master.passwd.local rather
than /etc/passwd.local, since the latter can't be a snapshot of
/etc/passwd and retain password information, while the former can
meaningfully be a snapshot of /etc/master.passwd and do so.

I installed the new cleanup on frobnitz and in the srvd in the
SIPB-Athena port.  frobnitz also now has an /etc/master.passwd.local,
and that will become part of the installation shortly.

I also modified frobnitz's root crontab to run /etc/athena/cleanup
every fifteen minutes, like the dialups do.  That will also figure
into the athena-inst part of the dialup installation.
