Description: crypt() with blowfish fails
In the future OpenBSD will return an error if the salt is too short (see pr number 1336 in the
OpenBSD bug tracking system). Thus in the future blowfish crypt with the current code will not work
on OpenBSD systems. The ports maintainer is aware of this issue and will put in the crude fix I
mentioned earlier.
