"If the salt argument is not provided, it will be randomly generated by PHP."
This statement is FALSE. As of 4.01pl2, ONE random salt is created... meaning that if you
recursively run the crypt() you will be using the same salt. This can be a feature in RARE
situations, but I recommend that you create your own random code to make a salt.
