It looks pretty good, however I'm not too Perl knowledgeable, so I can't say
for sure. While on the subject of adduser, I've had the following similar patch
to a local admin script here for awhile. The patch adds '.' and '/' to the salt
string, and makes it match that in src/usr.bin/passwd/local_passwd.c and
crypt(3). Is there any negative effect of the following?
