So I'm only the 2nd winner with this bug :-)

Thank you, it works! (got to move the definition of pwhash[16] one line
higher in the patch to compile)

I picked this one up at the end of last week.   I never got it into CVS,
because I didn't have the setup to test it.  (And I wanted to clean it
up a bit, we should also handle the 'interactive' login in a similar
way, and possibly 'ascii' passwords against the LM hash).

Thanks to Fabien Chevalier for providing the information that made
fixing this so easy.
