Not 100% certain, but it could further complicate our lives if we don't
seperate them. That would mean anytime someone wanted to create an
alias, they would have to check:
Kerberos
/etc/passwd on savannah
/com/mailer/aliases on fencepost
savannah-aliases (Presumably an include file)
I'm not comfortable with the fact that we don't have an authoritative
database of usernames right now, and this integrating this adds further
complexity.
