Subject:   Passwords don't work after 2.2.7 -> 2.2.8

I had a clean 2.2.7-RELEASE that I had installed to play with but not done
anything with since installing.  I performed an upgrade to 2.2.8 but once I
had done that, I could not log in with either root or my username.  I went
into single-user and checked /etc/master.passwd and it seemed intact.  I
just used passwd while in single-user to fix the passwords but this has me
nervous, because I have an important 2.2.2-RELEASE that I want to upgrade
and I can't be doing this for all THOSE users.  Any ideas as to what might
have happened?

Please cc: any responses to my email... thanks!
