That config.h says /* undef HAVE_TRUNCATED_SALT */  I tried your
suggestion backwards (defined it) just out of blind curiosity (might be
worth adding config.h dependencies in the Makefiles some day when
nothing more pressing needs attention, BTW ;) and the resulting swat
binary (a) worked with traditional crypt() passwords and (b) failed
with md5 passwords, as before.  So HAVE_TRUNCATED_SALT makes no
difference here.
