    Whoa. I had earlier tried linking with -lcrypt to no avail. In fact the
    build links with -lcrypt even without the "LIBS=-lcrypt". But I checked
    for the $1$ and it was there. I hadn't tried the "--with-md5-passwords"
    because in the FAQ it looked like that was for Red Hat only. But that
    fixed it.

    Many thanks Darren.
