Comment (by coh):
Added a somewhat improved version of both petrilli's and Rick van Hattem's
patches. Notably changes include:
* try to use os.random() for the salt generation with a fallback to
random.sample, yet over the whole 256-bit range
* use a final salt length of 128 bits
* added SHA-512 support
the patch is against svn rev 15346.
Hope that it helps somebody.
