Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

ecryptfs-setup-private should validate that the login password is
correct.

Bug #259631 sort of exposed this bug.  Somewhere buried in there, we
have a user who enters the wrong login password.  If they enter the same
wrong password twice, ecryptfs-setup-private proceeds to use it.

This can be fixed with unix_chkpwd.
