This was given to me _ages_ ago. May apologies to Paul for the length
of time its taken me to commit.

so I am backing it out for now. The problem is that some random program
calling crypt() could be passing a DES salt and the crypt(3) library
would encrypt it in md5 mode and there would be a password mismatch as a
result. I wrote a validater function for the DES code to verify that
a salt is valid for DES, but I realized there were too many strange things
to go wrong. passwd(1), pw(8) etc still generate md5 passwords by default
for /etc/master.passwd, so this is almost academic. It is a big deal for
things that have their own crypt(3)-ed password strings (.htaccess,
etc etc). Those are the things I do not want to break.
My DES salt recognizer basically checked if the salt was either 2 or
13 characters long, or began with '_' (_PASSWORD_EFMT1). I think it
would have worked but I have seen way too much crypt() mishandling
in the past.
one-way hash functions for authentication purposes. There is no more
"set the libcrypt->libXXXcrypt" nightmare.
- Undo the libmd.so hack, use -D to hide the md5c.c internals.
- Remove the symlink hacks in release/Makefile
- the algorthm is set by set_crypt_format() as before. If this is
not called, it tries to heuristically figure out the hash format, and
if all else fails, it uses the optional auth.conf entry to chose the
overall default hash.
- Since source has non-hidden crypto in it there may be some issues with
having the source it in some countries, so preserve the "secure/*"
division. You can still build a des-free libcrypt library if you want
to badly enough. This should not be a problem in the US or exporting
from the US as freebsd.org had notified BXA some time ago. That makes
this stuff re-exportable by anyone.
- For consistancy, the default in absence of any other clues is md5. This
is to try and minimize POLA across buildworld where folk may suddenly
be activating des-crypt()-hash support. Since the des hash may not
always be present, it seemed sensible to make the stronger md5 algorithm
the default.
All things being equal, no functionality is lost.

for crypt(3) by now. In any case:
Add crypt_set_format(3) + documentation to -lcrypt.
Add login_setcryptfmt(3) + documentation to -lutil.
Support for switching crypt formats in passwd(8).
Support for switching crypt formats in pw(8).
The simple synopsis is:
edit login.conf; add a passwd_format field set to "des" or "md5"; go nuts :)
