Ok. But by the looks of it, that's not compatible with the FreeBSD scheme.

Anyway. I have all the passwd.conf stuff done locally. It does traditional
DES, DES with multiple iterations and MD5. I haven't touched the blowfish
stuff yet but that shouldn't be too hard.

Since nobody's commented, unless I hear an objection within the week I'll go
ahead and commit.
