I should also add that another bug was filed downstream, reporting a
segfault in the event that the password contains a '# character.
Curiously, it doesn't seem to happen to everyone; for instance, David
Shen did not allude to a segfault (merely an authentication failure).
Here's a backtrace, courtesy of Joel Koglin:
