  Sorry, the server DOES ship with 'files' in 'authorize'.  It's done
that way so that the 'users' file works by default.

  Uh, no.  From the default 'radiusd.conf':

...
# Authorization. First preprocess (hints and huntgroups files),
# then realms, and finally look in the "users" file.
...
authorize {
	     preprocess
...
	     suffix
	     files
}
