I would like to use bcrypt (BLF-CRYPT) for my password scheme in Dovecot, but I 
can't because bcrypt support doesn't seem to have been integrated into the 
Debian libc.

Here's the list of supported password schemes by Dovecot on my Debian Wheezy 
machine:

# doveadm pw -l
CRYPT MD5 MD5-CRYPT SHA SHA1 SHA256 SHA512 SMD5 SSHA SSHA256 SSHA512 PLAIN 
CLEARTEXT PLAIN-TRUNC CRAM-MD5 HMAC-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN-MD4 PLAIN-MD5 LDAP-MD5 
LANMAN NTLM OTP SKEY RPA SHA256-CRYPT SHA512-CRYPT 

As you can see, BLF-CRYPT is missing from that list.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that installing libpam-unix2 would 
give me support for bcrypt with Dovecot. See the Dovecot wiki page on password 
scheme support for more information:
