I just pushed a change to dtlogin to use XDM authentication libs.  It
seemes we were not using this, and instead an older crypt() form,
which is not to good for this day and age.  The code implementing it
is horrible as well :)

The changes to enable it were simple, see the commit.

This should also work with FreeBSD, though I did not implement that
for it since I do not have a FreeBSD VM available.  I would think this
would also be good for OpenBSD, and might have to be implemented
there anyway (as of 5.8+), since according to

https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/tickets/52/

OpenBSD no longer supports DES in their crypt library, which causes
dtlogin to core when crypt returns a NULL pointer.

You might just need to make sure that the libXau header files are
installed, as you almost certainly already have the libXau library
installed if you are using X11.
