No, nscd was not running.  In fact, I've never used it.
My log output showed that all queries were successful, and nss-mysql was
able to retrieve everything that it needed from the database.
However, I take it back.  It's not that ENOENT was being _returned_ from
handle_query().  Rather, *errnop was being set to ENOENT.

I suppose.  I mean, it's working fine the way it is; I just thought
I'd pass my observation along to see if you knew about it or if you
thought it might have implications of a greater or more significant scope.
