Well, why not to try to make it more configurable then?

Maybe, maybe :))
Yeah, I agree that FreeRADIUS gives me enough detailed info to dig the
problem, if any. But sometimes there's a lot of useless and even
unwanted details, like in this case. I just don't want user passwords
to be logged at all.

I have tried GNU RADIUS in my time, and was impressed of its logging
subsystem. Of course, I understand that it's too difficult to change /
break such a global things that stay here for years...
