Well, the manpage and the interactive help claim that the '-b' switch will make htpasswd "get the password from the command line rather than prompting for it". The example you submitted does _not_ give the username and password on the command line but on standard input! Try "htpasswd -b -c htpasswd olaf foo" - this should work (it does here).
