+ * characters or less. Each block is encrypted using the standard UNIX
+ * libc crypt function. The result of the encryption for one block
+ * provides the salt for the suceeding block.

+ * as the returned pointer points to "static data that are overwritten
+ * by each call", (XPG3: XSI System Interface + Headers pg 109), and
+ * this is a drop in replacement for crypt();
