And do not set 'clear' to point to the empty string. After this commit,
'clear' only stores the result of getpass(3). This will be useful to
change the code to use agetpass().
$ grep '\<clear\>' lib/pwauth.c;
char *clear = NULL;
clear = getpass (prompt);
input = (clear == NULL) ? "" : clear;
clear = getpass (prompt);
input = (clear == NULL) ? "" : clear;
if (NULL != clear) {
strzero (clear);

It is Undefined Behavior to declare errno (see NOTES in its manual page).
Instead of using the errno dummy declaration, use one that doesn't need
a comment.

* Changelog: Update documentation of 2013-07-28 mancha entry.
* lib/prototypes.h, lib/encrypt.c: Update splint marker,
pw_encrypt can return NULL.
* lib/encrypt.c: Fix outdated statement on GNU crypt.
* src/chgpasswd.c: Improve diagnostic to user when pw_encrypt
fails and use fail_exit() instead of exit().
* src/chpasswd.c: Likewise.
* src/newusers.c: Likewise.
* src/passwd.c: Likewise when new password is encrypted.
* src/newgrp.c: Improve diagnostic to user and syslog when
pw_encrypt fails. Do not apply 1s penalty as this is not an
invalid password issue.
* src/passwd.c: Likewise when password is checked.
a salt that violates specs. On Linux, crypt() also fails with
DES/MD5 salts in FIPS140 mode. Rather than exit() on NULL returns
we send them back to the caller for appropriate handling.
