>Description:
	the /usr/libexec/makekey program only works with 2 char salts
	and <= 8 char passwords.  This means that the program cannot
	be used with MD5 passwords.

	The fact that nobody has noticed is probably indicative of how
	much use this program sees (ie: none) and therefore the necessary
	API/ABI changes should not give rise to trouble.

	I would suggest reading the salt and password from each their own
	line, that would solve the problem once and for all since niether
	can contain newlines.
