I did it once for SSH-1.2.25 or so, but that was in C of course....  :-)

In the good old days before MD5, etc., it was quite a simple check in awk:

	pw_pwd = $2;
	if (pw_pwd == "")
		printf("%s: has no password!\n", $1);
	else if (length(pw_pwd) != 13 || split(pw_pwd, j, /[.\/0-Z]/) != 13)
		printf("%s: is disabled!\n", $1);
