Literally as we speak, there is an electrician outside in the middle of 
a major re-wiring job at my house.  So I asked him and he said that 
under certain conditions the NEC does allow grounding the neutral wire 
in an outbuilding.

In my case, he is not doing that in my outbuilding.  He says it is 
always better to tie neutral and ground only at the service entrance if 
possible.
