Succession of these modules matter. There are more logic swtiches like
[NOTFOUND=return]. You also add/remove it in comments. Even if some
module missing but is in config all works, that was dafault for years.
What with upgrade to glibc 2.15, where nss_db is present? It is critical
system service, just leave logic in it to admin.

It's different thing, loaded by config modules are required to run it,
etc.
