The problem will be with your system getpass(), it probably limits
passwords to 8 characters.
The solution is to find out why REPLACE_GETPASS is not getting set in
configure.
1) check in config.h and see if it is getting set
2) if it isn't getting set then open config.log and
look for "getpass" then see what compiler error you got
