The patch and PR is not mine. I'm just an interested by-stander. :)

It was massage for FreeBSD by KIMURA Yasuhiro (see PR).  AFAICT, the =
public domain part is from the code provided by Ulrich Drepper =
(drepper-at-akkadia.org; his RH e-mail bounces):

	http://www.akkadia.org/drepper/sha-crypt.html
	http://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt

Not sure which of the two would need to be contacted for the change: =
one? both? RH as well?

(Open)Solaris is another project that incorporates the code if that =
matters:
