Maybe I'm just too dumb...  It's my understanding that the
purpose of the ``NODESCRYPTLINKS'' option in make.conf is
to prevent overwriting the libcrypt symlinks in /usr/lib.
Well, it doesn't work.

I cvsupped today in the morning (~ 9:00 UTC on Sunday), added
NODESCRYPTLINKS=true to /etc/make.conf, "make buildworld",
"make installworld", and couldn't log in anymore because
the symlinks had been set to libscrypt (and I'm using DES
passwords).

I guess that's not how it's supposed to work, is it?

Regards
   Oliver

PS:  Apart from that, all is working well.  I had to compile
the system without openssh, though.
