URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/360390

Log:
  MFC r359642: adduser: allow standard IFS characters in passwords

  Notably, the default IFS contains space/tab, thus any leading/trailing
  whitespace characters tend to be removed.

  Set IFS=3D for just the read lines to mitigate this, allowing the user to=
 be
  less surprised when their leading/trailing spaces weren't actually captur=
ed
  in the password as they are with other means of setting a user's password.
