Thanks for the tip!

If you have _shadow in /etc/group then pwd_mkdb should set the
correct group and mode for you.  You can run it by hand, e.g.

    # /usr/sbin/pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd

The permissions should look like this:

-rw-------  1 root  wheel  2298 Apr  3 10:01 /etc/master.passwd
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1826 Apr 10 16:33 /etc/passwd
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel    40960 Apr 10 16:33 /etc/pwd.db
-rw-r-----  1 root  _shadow  40960 Apr 10 16:33 /etc/spwd.db
