passwd problem

[John Kerbawy <john@maKintosh.com>]

I'm having a weird problem on two OpenBSD 2.6-current boxes. One of them
(paragon) is running the snapshot from March 17th and the other one is
running the previous snapshot. The specific problem occurs when I use chsh
or chpass to modify a user's information in the password file. After I try
to save and exit one of multiple text editors, I get a message telling me
to go back and fix one of the lines.

$ chsh john

* proceeds to edit the information in joe or vi *

File /var/tmp/pw.dWl18127 saved.
chsh: unrecognized field on line 4
re-edit the password file? [y]:

It does this when I try and change the shell, but also when I just try to
add information to the Full Name field.

$ cat /var/tmp/pw.dWl18127
#Changing user database information for john.
Shell: /bin/sh
Full Name: John K.
Office Location:         <-- line 4.
Office Phone: 
Home Phone: 

$ cat /etc/passwd                                                                                                                  
root:*:0:0:Charlie &:/root:/bin/csh
daemon:*:1:31:The devil himself:/root:/sbin/nologin
operator:*:2:5:System &:/operator:/sbin/nologin
bin:*:3:7:Binaries Commands and Source,,,:/:/sbin/nologin     <-- line 4.

I'm stumped. This is a fresh system; I don't believe any file permission
have been changed but if there is a question in that regard I will be
happy to post them.
